Since the first half of the XIX. Century, technical developments in

the factories which were founded by the technical experts and then
operated by foreigners and minorities in the beginning, have worked
there. Technical articles that could be read by both employees in
the factory, as well as the students studying in engineering schools
and industrial schools and the literate were published in different
newspapers and magazines of the period, though limited.
However, the first journal fully discussed in the scientific and technical
issues about industry was published in Istanbul between the year 1914-
1921 by İbrahim Pertev named as Sanayi. Sanayi journal in 1933,

letters with the name of Fen ve San’at and continued publishing until
