| NOTES | ||||||
| 1) In accordance with the Senate decision dated 16.06.2017 regarding trilingual education, it is required to have at least B2 level language proficiency in each of Turkish, English and Arabic as a graduation requirement in all departments of our University. a- In order for students to meet these requirements, the curriculum of the Bachelor of Philosophy Program is arranged in such a way that students can take 4 semesters of Arabic language courses and international students can take an additional 4 semesters of Turkish language courses. Students will only be allowed to enroll in the language course appropriate to their level through proficiency exams organized by the School of Languages. b- Students who have the required level of language proficiency or who are able to provide these proficiencies before 4 semesters will take the departmental elective courses specified in the course plan instead of Arabic courses coded ARA 301, ARA 302, ARA 303, ARA 304 and Turkish courses coded TUR 301, TUR 302, TUR 303, TUR 304. |
