Students who successfully complete the programme will be awarded an Master’s Degree in Electrical-Electronics Engineering.
It is a program that provides graduate education at the Second Cycle level.
To apply for a master's program, candidates must have a bachelor's degree and an ALES score determined by the senate, not less than 55 points in the score type of the program they apply for.
The principles regarding the application of candidates who are/can be graduates, the weight of the ALES score, provided that it is not less than 50%, and other issues regarding the admission of students to graduate education are determined by the Senate.
Higher education institutions may admit students to graduate programs with only an ALES score, or in addition to an ALES score, undergraduate grade point average, written scientific evaluation, and/or interview results may also be taken into consideration.
A student studying in a master's program with a thesis writes the results obtained by the spelling rules determined by the senate and defends the thesis orally in front of the jury.
Before the defense of the master's thesis and in theses that are corrected, the student completes the thesis and submits it to the advisor. The advisor submits the thesis to the Graduate School with his/her opinion that the thesis is defensible. The Graduate School receives the plagiarism software program report for the thesis in question and sends it to the advisor and jury members. If real plagiarism is detected in the data in the report, the thesis is sent to the institute board of directors for a decision together with its justification.
The master's thesis jury is appointed with the recommendation of the thesis advisor the head of the relevant institute department/art department and the approval of the institute board of directors. The jury consists of three or five faculty members, one of whom is the student's thesis advisor and at least one of whom is from outside the higher education institution. If the jury consists of three people, the second thesis advisor cannot be a jury member.
Upon completion of the thesis, the student submits the required number of copies of the thesis to the thesis advisor. The advisor sends the written opinion of the thesis in terms of compliance with the spelling rules and copies of the thesis to the relevant institute through the head of the department/art/science/art branch/program.
Upon completion of the thesis, the student submits the required number of copies of the thesis to the thesis advisor. The advisor sends the thesis copies to the relevant institute through the head of the department/art/science/art branch/program with his/her written opinion in terms of compliance with the spelling rules of the thesis.
The jury members meet within one month at the latest from the date the thesis is delivered to them and take the thesis exam. The thesis exam consists of the presentation of the thesis work followed by a question and answer section. The thesis exam is held in an environment open to the participation of the audience consisting of academic staff, graduate students, and experts in the field.
After the completion of the thesis exam, the jury decides on acceptance, rejection or correction of the thesis by absolute majority. This decision is notified to the relevant institute within three days following the thesis exam by the head of the institute department/department of arts and sciences.
The student whose thesis is rejected as unsuccessful is dismissed from the higher education institution.
The student who is given a correction decision about the thesis defends the corrected thesis again in front of the same jury within three months at the latest. At the end of this defense, the student whose thesis is found unsuccessful and not accepted is dismissed from the higher education institution.
If the student whose thesis is rejected makes a request, he/she is awarded a non-thesis master's degree diploma provided that he/she has fulfilled the course credit load, project writing, and similar requirements of the non-thesis master's program.
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 master's program can be carried out in two ways: with a thesis and without a thesis. Which institute departments how these programs will be carried out and the issues of allowing the transition between thesis and non-thesis master's programs within the authority of higher education institutions are regulated by the regulation issued by the senates. Upon the decision of the Council of Higher Education, postgraduate distance education programs can be opened in higher education institutions where education activities are planned and carried out based on information and communication technologies without the necessity of the instructors and students to be in the same place. The fields where distance education programs can be opened, the courses to be given through distance education and the number of credits and ECTS credits, the preparation of course materials, the way the exams are held, the protocols to be made between higher education institutions for this purpose and other issues related to distance education are determined by the Council of Higher Education.
