Possesses the key competencies listed below at an advanced level.

• Ability to use the acquired knowledge in activities in the field of plant protection and in solving complex problems.
• Knowing, choosing and applying of the analysis and modeling methods appropriate for the purpose
• Lifelong learning competence
• Multidisciplinary working competence
• Competence in receiving and giving instructions.

• The evaluation of students' achievements in courses and other activities is carried out in accordance with the "Ege University Measurement and Evaluation Principles Directive". The relevant directive can be accessed at http://oidb.ege.edu.tr/files/oidb/icerik/olcmedegerlendirme.pdf.
• Different methods such as mid-year and end-of-year assignments, projects, applications, mid-term and final exams, make-up exams and make-up exams are used in measurement and evaluation. In order for a student to take the end-of-semester or end-of-year exam of a course;
• Letter grading systems are used in the evaluation of student success.
• In this context, the RAS (Raw Achievement Score) for a course is calculated by taking into account the weighted average of the grades taken from the midterm exam and other semester / year educational activities, if any, and the final or make-up grade, if any.
• The instructor of the relevant course determines the percentage contribution of the student's semester / year activities and final exam grade to the RAS before the enrollment and registration week and announces it to the students within the first week of the semester courses at the latest. However, the contribution percentage of the semester / year activities must be between 40-70%, and the contribution percentage of the final or make-up exam grade, if any, must be between 60-30%.
• If the decimal part of the calculated RAS is 0.50 and above, it is rounded to the next higher integer, and if it is less than 0.50, it is rounded to the next lower integer. In the calculation of the Weighted Grade Point Average (WGPA), the letter grades of all courses a student has taken since the first semester are multiplied by the ECTS values of these courses separately; the results obtained are summed and divided by the total ECTS credits of all courses taken. The result is given with a precision of two digits after the comma. This result is defined as WGPA.

In order to monitor the quality of higher education programs;

• YÖK is responsible for planning, organizing, managing and supervising education, training and other activities in higher education institutions.

• “University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports” of higher education institutions prepared within the framework of the criteria determined by YÖK are published every year. The reports prepared according to these reports and containing quantitative and qualitative evaluations for higher education institutions are shared with the public by YÖK.

• The " Report of Foundation Higher Education Institutions ", which includes academic, administrative and financial data of foundation higher education institutions, is published every year by YÖK. These reports which include quantitative and qualitative evaluations of foundation higher education institutions are shared with the public by YÖK. Quality assurance of undergraduate programs in higher education is provided according to the "Procedures and Principles for Providing Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programs":

1. Modelling and Approval of Curriculum: YÖK determines the minimum standards and criteria required for the opening of undergraduate departments and programs in higher education institutions.

1.1. The curricula of undergraduate programs in higher education institutions and the learning outcomes that each program will provide to the student are decided by the senates of higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles on these issues determined by YÖK.

1.2. The curriculum of National Core Education Programs is implemented by higher education institutions with the approval of YÖK after being accepted by the relevant Council of Deans.

2. Measurement-Evaluation: How to measure and evaluate the learning outcomes that each undergraduate program will provide to the student is carried out according to the teaching and examination regulations prepared by higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles on these issues determined by YÖK.

3. Certification: Students enrolled in undergraduate programs receive a bachelor's degree, if they successfully complete the course credits and other obligations determined by higher education institutions.

4. Self-Evaluation-External Evaluation: In the context of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions enter the "Institution Internal Evaluation Reports" of the previous year into the Information System prepared by the Higher Education Quality Board (YÖKAK) at the beginning of each year. The "Institutional Feedback Report" prepared by YÖKAK regarding the external evaluation of higher education institutions is shared with the public. In addition, accreditation decisions made by accreditation bodies authorized or recognized by YÖKAK also show that the quality assurance of the qualifications of the programs is ensured. It carries out regular review activities regarding the qualifications determined in accordance with the YÖKAK legislation.
