Grading System Listen

Absolute or Relative Grading System can be used for assessment of the students. The system to be used in the programmes is announced before the beginning of the academic year after the decision and approval of the Senate. The statistical distribution chosen for the Relative Grading System is defined in the related regulation of the Senate and is announced in the University web site.

All assessment procedures are based on ECTS Credits.

Grading system

UNDERGRADUATE LEVEL

Success grades are calculated by taking into account the students' semester / yearly activities and the grades they receive from the semester / end-of-year exam. The success grade of the student is calculated by adding 40% of the midterm evaluation and 60% of the final exam grade. The grades are given out of a score of 4,00. Students who do not take the semester / end-of-year exam for any course and do not get at least 50 out of 100 in this exam are considered unsuccessful. This can be changed by the proposal of the relevant department board and the decision of the Senate. In departments that do not have a make-up exam and are predominantly evaluated during the semester, there is no requirement to get a minimum grade from the semester / end-of-year exam in order to be successful in the courses.

POSTGRADUATE LEVEL

Successful completion of a course is determined by the course success grade. The course grade is obtained by evaluating the student's success in combined studies; such as, exams, applied studies, homework and the final exam. The success grade of the student is calculated by adding 40% of the midterm evaluation and 60% of the final exam grade. Contribution rates of midterm evaluation and final exams to the success grade can be changed with the department's proposal, the decision of the Graduate School Board and the approval of the Senate. For successful completion of a course, the semester / end-of-year or make-up exam grade must be at least 60. In Department’s where there is no make-up exam and where the mid-term evaluation grade has a high effect on student success, there is no requirement to get a minimum grade for the semester / end-of-year exam for successful completion of the course.

For success completion of a course, at Master’s level the course grade must be at least CB and BB at PhD level. Scientific preparation pass grade is CC. The following table is the basis for the evaluation of grades:

c) K (Failed): Failed in non-credit courses.

d) FF: Applied to unsuccessful students.

e) FD: Applied to students who are absent from the relevant course.

e) FG: Applied to students who do not take the exam of the relevant course.
