Access to Further Studies
Graduates of the program can transfer to bachelor’s degree programs through the Vertical Transfer Exam (DGS) administered by the Student Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM). Graduates may continue their education by choosing relevant undergraduate programs within engineering and technology faculties. Additionally, they have the opportunity to enroll in certain semesters of related open education bachelor’s degree programs by taking make-up courses.
11
Examination Regulations, Assessment and Grading
In order for students to register for courses at the beginning of the semester and to be eligible to take the final exam, they must attend at least 70% of the lectures and 80% of the practical sessions.
Students are required to take at least one midterm exam and one final exam for each course. The final grade is calculated by combining 40% of the midterm exam and/or other assessment components (such as assignments, laboratory exams, quizzes, etc.) and 60% of the final exam score. All exams are graded out of 100 points.
Students must obtain a minimum of 50 points on the final exam to pass.
Grades of "AA," "BA," "BB," "CB," and "CC" are considered passing grades. Grades of "DC" and "DD" are conditional passes. Students receiving "DC" or "DD" grades must have a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.00 on a 4.00 scale to be considered successful in the course.

The Electric Energy Generation, Transmission, and Distribution Program is an associate degree program consisting of 4 semesters. Throughout the program, theoretical knowledge is provided alongside laboratory applications. To reinforce the education and facilitate students’ adaptation to professional life after graduation, workplace training and internship opportunities are included.
Additionally, seminars are organized where students can benefit from the experiences of industry representatives, as well as technical field trips that allow them to consolidate their technical knowledge.
There are 3 laboratories available for practical courses in the program:
Basic Electrical and Electronics Measurement Laboratory: Conducts applications in electrical circuit analysis, analog and digital electronics, and electrical measurement techniques.
Control and Installation Laboratory: Covers electromecanical control systems and both low and high voltage electrical installation applications.
Hydraulics and Pneumatics Laboratory: Focuses on hydraulics and pneumatics applications.
Furthermore, computer laboratories equipped with simulator programs are used for designing automation systems, electrical circuits, and electrical installation drawings.
