Education Information System

Environmental Engineering Graduate Program is an extensive 4 semester program. Students are expected to complete some core and elective courses with a total of 120 ECTS credits in their first 2 semester and write a research thesis in the last year of the program. Students graduated from this program will be qualified in one or some of the research areas listed below: wastewater engineering, soil and groundwater pollution, air pollution and control, water quality management, environmental chemistry, environmental microbiology, environmental modelling.

The aim of the Environmental Engineering Master program is to improve the problem solving skills of the students who graduate thanks to the theoretical and practical knowledge it provides. A student who has successfully graduated from this program has advanced engineering skills and knowledge, and is ready to work in the industry.

The level of global environmental and energy problems reveals the need for alternative methods to solve these problems. Environmental Engineering, on the other hand, is one of the most important areas to find solutions for the problems that our world is in now and will emerge in the future. For all these reasons, the main goal of our program is to establish equipped laboratories that will produce new technologies, and to establish useful scientific results by establishing collaborations with currently equipped equipped laboratories. University-Industry collaborations are of primary importance in order to facilitate the application of the results to be obtained in the light of scientific experiments at the industrial level.

Students who successfully complete the programme will be awarded an Master’s Degree in Environmental Engineering.

It is a programme that provides graduate education at Second Cycle level.

It is essential for the candidates of graduate program:
•    To hold an undergraduate diploma.
•    To have a grade of at least 55 in ALES (Academic Personnel and Graduate Education Entrance Exam), 450 in GMAT, which is an internationally accredited exam or 610 in the “quantitative” part of GRE exam.
•    To meet the requirements determined by the head of department and to have  taken the language proficiency exam given by the Institute, unless the candidate has a certificate of KPDS/UDS or any other exam accredited by YOK (Turkish Higher Education Institution).
•    To be successful in the interview/ aptitude test.
•    To have a reference letter, a statement of purpose  showing thereas on for applying  for the graduate program and competence in written and oral Turkish and/or foreign language skills.
•    Exchange student applications are to be done in accordance with the admission requirements of the agreement signed between DuzceUniversity and the partner university.
•    Visiting students can take the courses approved by the head of the related department.

Students studying master's with thesis are required:
• To take 7 courses and enroll in the Seminar course and Master’s thesis, and complete 120 ECTS. To get at least a grade of CB in order to be successful in each course of the program,
• To have 3.00 general average grade out of 4.00 on the core subjects, and are to be successful in the Seminar course and Master’s thesis defense.

Students registered in a Master’s program without thesis:
• Are required to take 10 courses and enroll in the Graduation Project Course, and complete 120 ECTS. (The Graduation Project Course do not have local credit and are assessed with a pass or fail).
• Are required to get at least CB grade in order to be successful in a course in their program.
• Are required to have 3.00 general average grades out of 4.00 on the core subjects, and are to be successful in the Graduate Project course.

Students enrolled in DU might be exempted from certain courses within the framework of certain regulations. A student can be exempted from a certain course provided related course content previously received from another institution complies with that of DU, which is subject to approval and verification by the Board of faculty/graduate school/school.

Recognition of Education Abroad

DU recognises academic terms and courses studied by a student that has been involved in an exchange programme for one or two terms at the universities with which a partnership was established.

Students that are selected to avail themselves of Student Mobility for Studies under ERASMUS are obliged to draw up an education agreement with relevant ERASMUS Unit Coordination prior to the mobility term. The education agreement demonstrates the courses to be studied at the partner university the student intends to go, as well as appropriate ECTS credits.

In addition to this, students shall be asked to issue a Recognition Sheet, which refers to the equivalent of foreign courses in DU, so that the credit transfer is planned and approved.

At the end of the exchange term, the courses studied abroad are recorded and demonstrated in the transcript, together with the original course codes and names and ECTS credits. Pursuant to ERASMUS Programme and Collaboration Agreements concluded thereunto, official transcripts will quote, an abbreviation signal of ET, European Transfer, for the courses studied abroad

The aim of the Environmental Engineering Master program; to train manpower of the preferred quality in the national and international market in the academic and / or industrial sector with basic engineering knowledge. Students enrolled in the program carry out their thesis studies in the fields they are interested in by registering for the elective courses of the discipline under the supervision of their advisors. Ultimately, they graduate as engineers who are conscious of their professional responsibilities and adhere to ethical values, have attentive, creative and critical thinking skills.​

Graduates, who have successfully completed the Environmental Engineering Master's program, start working in areas related to master's thesis studies or in areas of interest. They can work in areas requiring Environmental Engineering expertise such as direct treatment facilities, recycling centers, and they can easily find jobs in any sector that includes treatment / cleaning / purification / recycling / environmentally friendly units. On the other hand, students who realize that they have an interest in academic life during the master's degree can move their careers in this direction and continue their way with a doctorate they will start in any higher education institution.

Students who graduate from the Environmental Engineering Master's program can apply to the doctorate programs to study.

Environmental Engineering Department has been organized as minimum 7 courses and 21 local credits and 120 ECTS. Students enrolled in the program enroll in the elective courses of the related discipline under the supervision of the advisor, and complete the thesis under the supervision of the advisor.

For each course, the method of assessment and grading is defined "Course Information Form" in details. Click for more information about regulations

In order to graduate from this program, in addition to the courses with at least 21 credits, it is necessary to conduct a seminar and thesis.
