About Me

Where it all began

Prof. Erdem Cuce was born in 1985 in İspir, Erzurum, Türkiye. At the age of two, his family relocated to Rize, where he spent his formative years. He completed his primary, secondary, and high school education at Atatürk Primary School, Mehmet Akif Ersoy Secondary School, and Rize Anatolian High School, respectively. In 2002, he was admitted to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Uludağ University and graduated with honours.

In 2006, Prof. Erdem Cuce commenced his Master of Science studies in Mechanical Engineering at Karadeniz Technical University. He successfully completed the programme in 2009 with high honours, supported by a research project funded by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye (TÜBİTAK).

In 2011, he was awarded a prestigious Doctoral Research Scholarship by the Turkish Ministry of National Education, which enabled him to pursue his doctoral studies in the United Kingdom.

Engineering Solutions, Inspiring Change.
