The research was carried out in order to determine the current status of the institutions providing Mechanical Engineering education in universities in Turkey. Higher education institutions with Mechanical Engineering departments in Turkey were examined in terms of administrative status, teaching and progress, teaching staff and their status was observed. The research data were gathered by using the official websites of the departments with Mechanical Engineering education at universities, the guides of the Student Selection and Placement Center, and the electronic database of the Council of Higher Education between April and May 2022. As of May 2022, there is Mechanical Engineering education in 116 departments in our country (including the TRNC). Of the departments in these universities, 84 are state universities, 32 belong to foundations, 108 are engineering faculties, 6 are technology faculties and 2 are machinery faculties. There are 2283 faculty members and staff in the departments and 7445 Mechanical Engineering students who are placed in the departments for the year 2022. A comprehensive examination was made about the characteristics such as the titles of the lecturers and administrators in the departments, their professions, postgraduate education in the departments, the locations of the universities, the number of departments, foreign language education, accreditation. The findings of the study show that there is an average of 23 students per 1 instructor in Mechanical Engineering departments, and only 16.4% of the managers of Mechanical Engineering departments are not Mechanical Engineers by profession. When separate evaluations are made for the departments, it is concluded that there are fundamental distinctions in each field of activity compared to each other
