Faculty of Science | Nanoscience Minor Program

Profile of the Programme

The Nanoscience Program has an interdisciplinary educational structure that enables students from different undergraduate programs to acquire fundamental and applied knowledge in nanoscience alongside their primary disciplines. Within the program, students gain theoretical knowledge of the physical, chemical, and biological properties of nanomaterials, synthesis methods, characterization techniques, and technological applications, while developing analytical and critical thinking skills through current research examples. The program is designed to support students in following scientific literature, engaging with multiple disciplines, and preparing for graduate programs or research and development oriented careers in nanotechnology related fields.

Specific Admission Requirements

General admission requirements stated under Info on the Institution on this website are being applied to start this programme.

Recognition of Prior Learning

Depending on the degrees awarded, theoretical or practical courses taken as part of a degree (completed or not completed) may lead to recognition of these as prior learning by the programme administration. The students who have taken courses in another institution in Turkey or abroad can ask for credit and grade transfer. The executive boards of relevant programme will decide on the courses to be transferred covering students' entire academic program once and for all with the condition that the request for transfer be made within the first week of the academic year, the requests cannot be repeated.

Qualification Requirements and Regulations

A student is required to successfully complete the designated program of courses meet a minimum of 240 ECTS credit requirement and have a minimum GPA of 2.00/4.00 and no FF, DZ or YZ grades.

Access to Further Studies

May apply to master's or doctorate programmes in any field or proficiency in fine arts programmes

Graduation Requirements

A student is required to successfully complete the designated program of courses meet a minimum of 240 ECTS credit requirement and have a minimum GPA of 2.00/4.00 and no FF, DZ or YZ grades.

Occupational Profiles of Graduates

Students of our University's Department of Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Materials Engineering will be able to reach new approaches with the possibilities of knowledge in their fields at the nanoscale. In addition, they will be able to conduct interdisciplinary studies through common features at the nanoscale level with other fields outside their own field.

Examination Regulations, Assessment and Grading

A variety of assessment methods such as mid-term(s), assignment(s), exercise(s), project(s), practice(s), and a final exam are implemented in the programme. Assessment methods may include classical test(s), multiple-choice test(s), homework(s), performance evaluation(s), and product evaluation(s). In order to graduate from the programme, cumulative GPA must be minimum 2.00. A course grade is constituted by evaluating the above stated elements and given by using letters. Letter grades and their associated coefficients are as follows;

Grade	Coefficient
AA	4,0
AB	3,7
BA	3,3
BB	3,0
BC	2,7
CB	2,3
CC	2,0
CD	1,7
DC	1,3
DD	1,0
FF	0,0
