Examination, assessment and grading procedure is mainly based on Kocaeli University Education and Training Regulations for Associate and Undergraduate Degrees Depending on the nature of the course various instruments such as midterms, final exams, short exams, presentations, assignments, projects, portfolios and applications may be involved in the assessment process of a semester on condition that students are informed about their weights upon registry. Contribution of these activities to final grading range between 30% -70% and So as to be eligible to take the final exam, a student has to fulfill the attendance requirement of 70% for theoretical and 80 % for practical courses. Once this requirement is fulfilled, attendance is not required again in case of a failure and retaking that course. Final grading of a course is determined on the basis of semester studies and final exam. Those with certified and officially approved excuses are also given a makeup exam.

So as to be admitted to the program, candidates should be a graduate of programs in the related fields of study. The bachelor’s degrees granted from universities other than Turkey shall be approved by the Council of Higher Education. Applicants must get the required score from related test parts of ALES (Examination for Academic Personnel and Postgraduate Education) or equivalent grade from GMAT or GRE exams, and they need to certify their foreign language proficiency through national or internationally recognized examinations such as KPDS,UDS,TOFEL,etc.

Our graduates can work in automotive main and sub-industry, R & D institutions, consulting firms, machine manufacturing industry, transportation systems, defense industry, in general, national and international private and public organizations related to automotive area. In addition, our graduates can serve as academic staff at universities for departments related to automotive engineering.

Qualification is valid indefinitely
