In order to monitor the quality of higher education programs,

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

"University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports" of higher education institutions, prepared annually within the criteria determined by YÖK, are published. Reports prepared according to these reports, containing quantitative and qualitative evaluations of higher education institutions, are shared with the public by YÖK.

Every year, YÖK publishes the "Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report", which includes academic, administrative, and financial data on foundation higher education institutions. 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. Design and Approval of Curriculum:

1.1. YÖK determines the minimum standards and criteria required to open undergraduate departments and programs in higher education institutions.

1.2. The curriculum of undergraduate programs in higher education institutions and the learning outcomes that each program will bring to the student are determined by the senates of higher education institutions by the fundamental principles determined by YÖK on these issues.

1.3. Higher education institutions implement the curriculum of National Core Education Programs with the approval of the Council of Higher Education after being accepted by the relevant Deans Council.

2. Measurement-Evaluation: How to measure and evaluate the learning outcomes that each undergraduate program will provide to the student is carried out by the education, training, and examination regulations prepared by higher education institutions by the fundamental principles determined by the Council of Higher Education on these issues.

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

4. Self-Evaluation-External Evaluation: In continuous monitoring, higher education institutions submit the "Institutional Internal Evaluation Reports" of the previous year into the Information System prepared by the Turkish Higher Education Quality Council (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 programs' qualifications is ensured. It conducts regular review activities regarding the qualifications determined by the YÖKAK legislation.

The Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of University Programs in Mathematical, Natural and Social Sciences (FEDEK), recognized by YÖK as a national quality assurance institution, accredited the undergraduate program in Mathematics in 2019. The validity period of FEDEK accreditation is five years.

5. Knowledge management systems and feedback mechanisms: In the process of identifying the teaching purposes of the program, the partners including the undergraduates, instructors, the graduates in advisory board of the department, the employer’s representatives of public and private institutions were considered. Feedback from internal and external partners were taken into account in order to revise the program. 

Therefore, the teaching purposes of the program are updated based on the knowledge obtained from both internal and external partners. Specifically, the interviews in academic board of the department, the course evaluation questionnaires acquired from the undergraduates, and satisfaction surveys obtained from new graduates are utilized in the revision of the program. Besides, the knowledge forms of the institutions where some of our graduates have been working, and the interviews made with competent individuals in both national and international academic institutions are also considered in that revision.

Student admission is made according to the results of the central exam organized by the Measuring, Selection, and Placement Center (ÖSYM) and the principles determined by the Council of Higher Education.

Student admission to the program is explained in detail under the heading "Student Admission" in the "About Yeditepe University" section.
