Eren Tahiroğlu

Mechanical Engineering student focused on advanced materials, nanotechnology, and AI-assisted research and engineering workflows.

I use research, engineering analysis, technical development, and documentation as connected parts of the same problem-solving process. Across the work documented here, I distinguish clearly between what was planned, what I directly performed, what I only observed, and what has actually been validated.


Research

Research and research-like work I have actually carried out.

My research path began with graphene-based ballistic-protection literature, expanded into the AshCycle waste-management study, and currently includes preparation of a TÜBİTAK 1002-A proposal on FDM-manufactured PLA UAV wings after short-term thermal exposure.

AI-Assisted Technical Support May 2026 Completed

Mood Meal — Mood-Based Meal Recommendation App

A live web app — my friends' university course project — to which I provided external technical development support using AI-assisted tools

A live university course project owned by friends, to which I provided outside technical-development support using AI-assisted tools: frontend/backend integration, Supabase, authentication, testing, debugging, and deployment. The original project idea, recommendation logic, and product ownership belong to the project team.

Activities & Volunteering

Long-term student-organization and volunteering roles.

I served in the AGÜ Automotive Club from event and organization work through Audit Board roles, including Chair of the Audit Board, and I have been involved with the Association for Support of Contemporary Living (ÇYDD) as a volunteer member and scholarship recipient.

About

Advanced materials, capital markets, and research.

Alongside Mechanical Engineering, I study Securities and Capital Markets at Anadolu University as an extension of my personal interest in investing and financial markets. My longer-term academic direction is centered on advanced materials, nanotechnology, and research.
