Education

It is one of the main priorities of our department that the students enrolled in the undergraduate program are able to provide the Program Learning Outcomes within the specified time frame during their education period. In this direction, in addition to the academic support given to the students, the course contents, practices and evaluation methods are meticulously structured in order to ensure that the students reach the targeted level of knowledge and skills.
In order for students to achieve their learning outcomes during the four-year education process, the course curriculum is organized in such a way that it progresses gradually with an increasing academic content. In the first two years, theoretical infrastructure is gained with basic courses, while in the last two years, it is aimed to reinforce this infrastructure practically with more vocation-oriented courses. This approach allows students to develop their knowledge and competencies in a systematic way throughout the program.
This structure, which is supported by various application areas such as semester assessments, assignments, projects and voluntary internships, allows us to continuously monitor the development of students in line with their learning outcomes. This process is carried out diligently in order to ensure that students reach their learning outcomes in a timely and complete manner during the education process until graduation.

Yandal

There is currently no active minor program in our department . For this reason, studies on the opening of minor programs and needs analyses in order to improve the interdisciplinary knowledge and skills of our students may be put on the agenda in the future.

Exchange Programs

In our department, Erasmus+ and Farabi programs are actively implemented within the scope of international student exchange programs. These programs provide our students with the opportunity to study at universities abroad, interact with different cultures and establish international academic networks, allowing them to gain global perspectives.
The Erasmus+ Program offers our students the opportunity to study at universities in Europe and provides them with academic experience at an international level. In the exchanges made within the scope of Erasmus+, students are enriched both academically and culturally and gain a more competitive position in the international labor market. In order to manage the application processes related to this program, to guide the students and to monitor the effectiveness of the program, there is an assistant professor, coordinator and a research assistant to assist him.
