Kazim Cecen
Kazim Cecen (August 23, 1919August 8, 1997), was a Turkish hydraulic engineering academic and historian of science. Life Kazim Cecen was born in Elazig in 1919. In 1937, he completed his high school at İzmir Atatürk High School. After that he went to Germany in 1938 to study hydraulic engineering on a scholarship from the Turkish Ministry of National Education, and he completed his degree in engineering in 1943 from the Technische Hochschule in Berlin (now Technische Universität Berlin). Despite enrolling in a doctoral program at the same university, the onset of the Second World War and worsening war conditions within Germany forced him to return to Turkey in 1945 without completing his program. After his return to Turkey, he started teaching at Istanbul Technical University (ITU), where he attained an associate professorship in 1949, and full professorship in 1960. In 1959, he attained his PhD from Graz University of Technology in Austria. In 1982, he became the dean ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
