ECTS
The educational and teaching objectives and program outcomes of the associate degree programs conducted in the academic units of our Vocational School are evaluated within the “Turkish Higher Education Qualifications Framework (TYYÇ)” and specific qualifications for the field are also taken into consideration. Educational programs are made according to the targets set by the TYYÇ developed within the scope of the “European Higher Education Area Qualifications Framework”. For example; course credits are credited based on the student workload required to acquire the knowledge, skills, and competencies foreseen on a program basis as determined in the “Turkish Higher Education Qualifications Framework”, and educational programs are implemented as 30 ECTS per semester. Detailed information about the academic units where associate degree programs are available can be accessed at https://obs.mehmetakif.edu.tr/oibs/bologna/. The relationship of the programs with TYYÇ can be accessed at https://obs.mehmetakif.edu.tr/oibs/bologna/.
In the educational and teaching activities conducted at our Vocational School, the design based on student workload is determined by considering YÖKAK and ECTS. In the calculation of ECTS at our Vocational School, 30 ECTS corresponds to the workload of 1 semester, and 1 ECTS = 25–30 hours of workload. The educational objectives and program outcomes of the programs are planned to present what the student will learn based on program outcomes in a measurable way during the learning process. In determining the student workload, the in-class and out-of-class studies and exams related to the course that the student undertakes to achieve the targeted learning outcomes are taken into account. The ECTS determined based on workload is publicly announced under the name “ECTS Information Package” on the official website of our university, at https://obs.mehmetakif.edu.tr/oibs/bologna/ in the subheadings belonging to the academic units of our Vocational School.
ECTS studies continue in all academic units of our Vocational School (https://obs.mehmetakif.edu.tr/oibs/bologna/).
