KEMAL AHMET ARU' S ARCHIVE
From The History of the Istanbul Technical University
"In 1940 I entered the , newly founded by Prof. , who had recently returned from the ETH in Switzerland. In 1943, on his return from Switzerland, after practising the type of contemporary architectural training on the French models organised by Prof. Debb in the Higher School of Engineering, Emin Onat initiated a German model of architectural training. It was then, in 1946, that Orhan Safa and I were appointed assistants in the School of Architecture."
"Following the decision made by Emin Onat, I began work together with Prof. as an assistant professor in the Department of Town Planning in the School of Architecture. With the establishment by the Faculty of Engineering of a Town Planning Institute in 1960-1970, town planning gradually moved outside the domain of the architectural context."
