dc.description.abstractÖmer Şükrü Topsakal 3 Mayıs 1918 Malatya’da doğmuş bir Türk Promethe ve makine mühendisidir. Bu araştırmada Topsakal’ın çocukluğunda başlayarak 2015 yılındaki vefatına kadar geçen süre incelenmiştir. Hayat hikâyesi; özellikle Atatürk tarafından Almanya’ya eğitim için gönderilmesi ve eğitimini tamamlayıp Türkiye’ye döndükten sonra TCDD ve DSİ gibi devlet kurumlarındaki çalışma sürecine ve kendi şirketini kurmasına odaklanılıp bu çerçevede incelenmiştir. Almanya’ya öğrenci gönderilme sebeplerini daha iyi anlayabilmek için 1920’lerde Türkiye’nin durumuna değinilmiştir. Topsakal’ı ve yaşantısını anlayabilmek için aile üyeleriyle röportajlar yapılmış, Atatürk tarafından yurt dışına gönderilen öğrencilerden ve onların hayatlarından bahseden “Türk Prometheler” kitabı temel kaynaklar olarak kullanılmıştır.
dc.description.abstractÖmer Şükrü Topsakal, born on May 3, 1918, in Malatya, is a Turkish Promethe and mechanical engineer. This research examines the period from Topsakal's childhood to his passing in 2015. His life story focuses on his journey, especially his education in Germany sponsored by Atatürk, his return to Turkey after completing his studies, his work at state institutions such as TCDD and DSİ, and the establishment of his own company. To better understand the reasons for sending students to Germany, the study mentions Turkey's situation in the 1920s. Interviews with family members were conducted to comprehend Topsakal and his life, and the book "Türk Prometheler," telling students sent abroad by Atatürk and their lives, served as primary sources.
