Abstract :Applied education is a teaching paradigm that attracts the attention of researchers. It is just beginning to spread in Turkey. In this study, the cooperative education model, which is a structured method that combines classroom-based education and hands-on work experience, is discussed. In particular, the paradigms of engineering education in the last hundred years were reviewed, and engineering education in Turkey was criticized. An evaluation will be made by giving information about the cooperative education model that has gained importance in Turkey in recent years. Evaluations are being made about the reflections of the "Applied Education Framework Regulation in Higher Education” prepared by the Council of Higher Education (CoHE) in 2021 in Turkey. Applied Engineering Training, which has been on the agenda in Turkey in recent years, was discussed. The Applied Engineering Experience Training (UMDE) applied in the engineering faculty of Sakarya University was mentioned and discussed in the context of its dissemination and sustainability of quality. This education model, which will meet the needs of young people who receive engineering education and the enterprises that will employ them, will make an essential contribution to the literature in terms of becoming widespread in Turkey.
