Design & Construct
As one of the most important student organizations in Boğaziçi University, DECO (Design&Construct) is a steel bridge competition held by Boğaziçi University Construction Club since 2007. This Europe’s one of a kind competition is held in the unique atmosphere of Boğaziçi University South Campus with participants from both Turkey and Europe. The aim of the competition is to create an opportunity for civil engineering and architecture students from different universities/countries to meet, to present the bridges that they designed, and compete against time and other students; and also introduce them the historical and cultural places of Istanbul. The competition consists of two stages. In the first stage, the competing teams are going to build their bridges in the South Campus Square and the bridges are going to be evaluated by the jury according to their aesthetics. In the second stage, where the real competition holds, the teams are going to build the bridges as fast as possible in the South Campus parking lot. This time the bridges are going to be evaluated according to workmen – time efficiency, dead weight efficiency and displacement efficiency. Vertical and horizontal weight tests are going to be applied to the bridges. After these evaluations, according to general performance points, the teams that complete the competition as the first 3 will get a reward. The competition will be closed with the presentations of sponsor companies and the award ceremony. Thanks to “Design&Construct,” theoretical lessons are turned into live applications by more than 100 students each year in the magical atmosphere of our university. During this competition, in which the important construction companies have stands, students can meet the representatives and get internship and career advices.
Civil Career
The first event of Civil Career had been done by Bogazici University Construction Club in 2009. Civil Career is not a valid name in English, we found this name as a combination of “Career Days” and “Civil Engineering”. When we had our first event successfully, advisors and board members of the club decided to make Civil Career an annual event. Civil Career is a kind of seminary that puts civil engineering candidates in Turkey and the executives of leading construction firms of the sector together. By the way, it is categorized as a career day. Civil Career has 3 missions. Directive mission, It refers outstanding topics and amazing innovations in the sector . Educative mission, It teaches participants by technical topics and proves that by certificates. Complementary mission, It has minor events that make participants meet each other. Another goal of our club as Bogazici University Construction Club is increasing the number of participants and make Civil Career an international organization.

Our Primary
Our Primary is a Social Responsibility Project which is initiated in 2010 by BUYAP (Boğaziçi University Construction Club). There is no doubt, we must start with education to grow more conscious and fair citizens and develop Turkey meanwhile impressing the idea of social responsibility on university students and make them concerned about society’s problems. Main purposes of Our Primary Project are building new schools in rural areas where the education services are not sufficient, and fortifying these schools to serve properly. Civil Engineering Students gain experience by being a part of Our Primary Project, which helps to improvement of social consciousness by the support from Turkey’s most prominent companies and institutions. Every chance that provides a better and fair education system is considered important. Hence, every donation to Our Primary Project is very worthful to students who are going to study in the school that BUYAP going to build, and also to Boğaziçi University Construction Club members. Every grant gains value with Our Primary Project.
