The Construction Technology Program provides pre-education and training on the construction and operation of all types of structures used in daily life. Construction Technology is a technical discipline based on fundamental mathematics and physics education, followed by general knowledge in key engineering fields such as structural engineering, mechanics, hydraulics, construction materials, transportation, geotechnical engineering, and site management.

The program aims to equip graduates with the technical competencies required to:

• Actively participate in field operations, overseeing technical processes in various institutions and organizations within the construction industry.
• Specialize in structural design and technical drafting, effectively contributing to project development in engineering and architectural firms.
• Establish and manage independent enterprises, introducing innovative and sustainable solutions to the construction sector.

Stay abreast of technological advancements, assuming key responsibilities in structural inspection and public infrastructure projects.

Education and training are conducted in the form of formal education. Additionally, practical training is carried out in laboratories within the higher education institution. Within the scope of the Applied Education Model (3+1), students participate in Workplace Vocational Training, where they work in a real business environment for 15 weeks. This enables them to adapt to the industry, apply theoretical knowledge in practice, and enhance their professional competencies.

• Assessment and evaluation methods, including exam types and their contribution to the course success grade, are determined by the Manisa Celal Bayar University Senate in accordance with the fundamental principles set by the Council of Higher Education (YÖK).
• In assessment and evaluation, emphasis is placed on formative assessment tools such as quizzes, assignments, reports, and projects, as well as various process-based evaluation methods.
• The number of quizzes, projects, and other activities deemed appropriate by the instructor, along with their contribution to the final grade, is specified in the course syllabus by the instructor.
• The contribution of the final or resit exam to the overall grade is determined to be at least 40% and at most 60%.
• A student’s success in a course is assessed using the relative grading system, in accordance with the Manisa Celal Bayar University Relative Grading System Directive. This evaluation considers the student’s performance in semester activities and final or resit exam scores, along with the overall success level of the class.
• The assessment and evaluation system for each course is specified in the Student Information System (OBS) and the course syllabus.

To ensure the quality of higher education programs:

• The Council of Higher Education (YÖK) is responsible for planning, regulating, managing, and supervising education, training, and other activities conducted in higher education institutions.
• Each year, YÖK publishes "University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports", which assess higher education institutions based on predetermined criteria. These reports include both quantitative and qualitative evaluations and are shared with the public.
• The quality assurance of associate degree programs in higher education is ensured in accordance with the "Regulations on Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programs":

1. Curriculum Development and Approval

• 1.1. YÖK sets the minimum standards and criteria required for the establishment of associate degree departments and programs in higher education institutions.
• 1.2. The curriculum of associate degree programs and the learning outcomes expected from each diploma program are determined by university senates in line with the fundamental principles set by YÖK.
• 1.3. National Core Education Programs are implemented by higher education institutions with YÖK’s approval.

2. Assessment and Evaluation

• The assessment and evaluation of the learning outcomes of each associate degree program are conducted in accordance with the principles set by YÖK, following the academic and examination regulations prepared by higher education institutions.

3. Certification

• Students enrolled in associate degree programs receive an associate degree diploma upon successful completion of the required course credits and other academic obligations set by their higher education institution.

4. Self-Assessment and External Evaluation

• As part of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions submit their Institutional Self-Evaluation Reports to the Higher Education Quality Council (YÖKAK) at the beginning of each year.
• YÖKAK publishes the Institutional Feedback Report, which contains findings from the external evaluation process, and shares it with the public.
• The quality assurance of all university departments is ensured within the framework of the "Higher Education Quality Assurance and Higher Education Quality Council Regulation" and the "MCBÜ Quality Assurance Directive."
• Additionally, accreditation decisions issued by the Vocational Education Evaluation and Accreditation Association (MEDEK), recognized by YÖKAK, confirm the quality assurance of the program’s qualifications.
• YÖKAK conducts regular review activities to ensure compliance with established qualifications as per its regulations.
