Profile of the Programme

Department of Physics was established in 1993 and is located at the Yunus Emre Campus. Mathematical Physics, General Physics, High Energy and Plasma Physics, Atom and Molecule and Solid State Physics are five major branches of the Department. In the department of physics, there are 10 professors, 15 associate professors, 6 assistant professors, 31 instructors, and 7 lecturers, as well as 2 research assistants within the scope of YÖK-ÖYP program. Courses offered in the Physics program emphasize both the fundamental and advanced topics in the mentioned major branches. Research laboratories are well equipped with equipments and facilities through the funding of Scientific Research Projects Fund of Anadolu University, DPT and TUBITAK. The department's educational aim is to train physicists and future scientists who are guided by a solid knowledge in the field, who are able to handle and solve problems they encounter through their careers, and who can contribute to the developments in science and technology. The graduates of this department can be employed in various research and development laboratories.

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.
