With this vision, the mission of the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering is to prepare its graduates for diverse and competitive career paths by providing them the necessary knowledge and skills for high-quality engineering studies and advanced engineering research by equipping them with a wide intellectual spectrum.

Electrical and Electronics Engineering education is provided in English through formal education. There are classrooms, lecture halls and laboratories within the university in order to gain the competencies aimed at by the department courses and the program. Students are supported with courses from different disciplines within the scope of the applied core curriculum, and are also supported socially and culturally.

In each course, assessments such as midterm exams, projects, laboratory or studio work, assignments, and quizzes are carried out throughout the semester. Additionally, a final exam is given at the end of the semester. The percentages/weights of the assessments carried out throughout the semester and the final exam grade in the total end-of-semester are determined by the relevant instructor and announced at the beginning of the semester. The percentage/weight of the final exam in the total grade cannot exceed 60%. The assessments in-term, must be evaluated according to the academic calendar and the results must be announced to the students before the end of the semester courses.

Except for the exams of the English Preparatory Program, multiple choice or true-false type questions are not included in the midterm and final exams.

The students who are suspended as a result of a disciplinary investigation are not given the opportunity to make up for the assessments that they could not attend during the period they were suspended.

In order to be eligible to take the final exam, students must demonstrate a certain level of overall success in other assessment activities carried out throughout the semester. Students who cannot achieve this level of success or do not meet the attendance requirements of the course are not taken to the final exam of the course. The percentages of the assessments carried out throughout the semester and the minimum success level and attendance requirement required to gain the right to take the final exam are determined by the instructor teaching the course and announced in writing at the beginning of the semester. Students who are not eligible to take the final exam are determined by the instructor teaching the course and these students are given an FZ grade within the dates specified in the academic calendar before the final exams. Students who receive FZ grades are not admitted to the final exam of the course.

The letter grade to be given to each student at the end of the semester is determined by the instructor based on the student's end-of-semester weighted total grade, attendance at classes and participation in other studies. Among the students whose total success does not meet the minimum level of success determined by the instructor, those who have attended the final exam are given an F grade, and students who have the right to take the final exam but have not taken the final exam are given an FX grade. Students who have not taken the final exam but whose total success exceeds the minimum success level determined by the instructor may be given a grade of D or higher. Letter grades are delivered electronically to the Registrar's Office until the day specified in the academic calendar.

The Registrar's Office announces end-of-semester course grades and semester and overall grade point averages on the date specified in the academic calendar.

Except for the I grades that may have been given and the grades of the students who will take the make-up exam within the scope of Article 4.8, all grades that remain uncertain after the announcement of the letter grades will be converted into FX grades.

To ensure the quality of higher education programs:

The Council of Higher Education (YÖK) is responsible for the planning, organization, management, and supervision of education, teaching, and other activities carried out in higher education institutions.

Each year, "University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports" belonging to higher education institutions are published within the framework of criteria determined by YÖK. Reports containing quantitative and qualitative evaluations directed towards higher education institutions are shared with the public by YÖK based on these reports.

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

1. Curriculum Development and Approval:

1.1. The Council of Higher Education (YÖK) determines the minimum standards and criteria necessary for the opening of undergraduate departments and programs in higher education institutions.

1.2. The curriculum of undergraduate programs and the learning outcomes each program will provide to students are determined by the senates of higher education institutions in accordance with the basic principles set by YÖK on these matters.

1.3. After the curriculum of National Core Education Programs is accepted by the relevant Council of Deans, it is implemented by higher education institutions with the approval of YÖK.

2. Assessment and Evaluation: The measurement and evaluation of the learning outcomes that each undergraduate program will provide to students are conducted according to the education and examination regulations prepared by higher education institutions in line with the basic principles determined by YÖK.

3. Certification: Upon successfully completing the course credits and other obligations determined by higher education institutions, students enrolled in undergraduate programs receive a bachelor's degree.

4. Self-Assessment - External Evaluation: In the context of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions enter the "Institutional Self-Assessment Reports" for the previous year prepared by the Higher Education Quality Council (YÖKAK) into the Information System at the beginning of each year. YÖKAK shares the "Institutional Feedback Report" prepared for the external evaluation of higher education institutions with the public. Additionally, accreditation decisions given by accreditation bodies authorized or recognized by YÖKAK also demonstrate that the quality assurance of programs' competencies is ensured. YÖKAK conducts regular review activities regarding the qualifications determined by legislation.

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering has ABET - (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc.) international accreditation.
