For ensuring the quality of higher education programs:

• The Council of Higher Education (YÖK) is responsible for planning, organizing, managing, and supervising education and training as well as other activities within higher education institutions.

• Within the framework of the criteria determined by YÖK, “University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports” of higher education institutions are prepared and published annually. Based on these reports, quantitative and qualitative evaluations regarding higher education institutions are also shared with the public by YÖK.

• The “Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report,” which includes academic, administrative, and financial data of foundation universities, is published annually by YÖK. These reports, containing quantitative and qualitative evaluations of foundation higher education institutions, are shared with the public by YÖK. The quality assurance of undergraduate programs in higher education is ensured in accordance with the “Procedures and Principles for Ensuring the Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programs”:

1. Establishment and Approval of Academic Programs:
YÖK determines the minimum standards and criteria required for the establishment of undergraduate departments and programs in higher education institutions.

1.1. The curriculum of undergraduate programs and the learning outcomes to be acquired by students in each program are determined by the senates of higher education institutions in line with the basic principles set forth by YÖK.

1.2. The curricula of National Core Education Programs, after being adopted by the relevant Deans’ Council, are implemented by higher education institutions upon the approval of YÖK.

2. Assessment and Evaluation:
The methods of assessment and evaluation of the learning outcomes to be acquired by students in each undergraduate program are carried out according to the education and examination regulations prepared by higher education institutions in line with the basic principles determined by YÖK.

3. Certification:
Students enrolled in undergraduate programs, upon successful completion of the required course credits and other obligations determined by higher education institutions, are awarded a bachelor’s degree diploma.

4. Self-Assessment and External Evaluation:
Within the scope of continuous monitoring, higher education institutions enter their “Internal Evaluation Reports” for the previous year into the Information System prepared by the Higher Education Quality Council (YÖKAK) at the beginning of each year. YÖKAK shares with the public the “Institutional Feedback Report” prepared regarding the external evaluation of higher education institutions. In addition, accreditation decisions given by accreditation agencies authorized or recognized by YÖKAK demonstrate that the qualifications of programs are assured in terms of quality. Pursuant to YÖKAK regulations, regular review activities are conducted concerning the defined qualifications.
