|
Programs Required for Accreditation Application
Programs listed below are required to apply to MÜDEK by January 31, 2014, if they want to be evaluated by MÜDEK for accreditation in 2014-2015 accreditation cycle.
- Undergraduate and masters programs seeking for MÜDEK accreditation for the first time.
- Programs previously evaluated by MÜDEK with accreditation terms expiring on September 30, 2015. Programs evaluated by MÜDEK in 2012-2013 cycle requiring an "interim evaluation" in 2014-2015 accreditation cycle are included in this category.
Programs without any application until January 31, 2014 will not be evaluated in the 2014-2015 accreditation cycle and accreditations of those programs whose accreditations will expire on September 30, 2015, will be terminated at that date.
A different application schedule will be used for those programs that are in the process of being evaluated in the 2013-2014 accreditation cycle and will end with a "Show Cause" decision in 2014.
Programs Eligible for Application for Accreditation and their Relevant Institutions
An evaluation application for the purpose of accreditation can be filed for bachelor's and master's degree engineering education programs of the higher
educational institutions in Turkey and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, as recognized by the Council of Higher Education of Turkey.
Programs applying for accreditation should include the word "engineering" in their title.
Any program applying for the first time should have graduates before the date of application.
If a program applying for accreditation provides options to the students to complete the program, then each such option should meet all the evaluation criteria.
If there is a second education (program) implemented by the institution for a normal program applying for accreditation and if this second education program has graduates, then these programs shall be evaluated according to the following principles:
- The application should be made for both normal and second education programs.
- The institutions should prove that each of such normal and second education programs meets the MÜDEK criteria, separately.
- Second education programs, which did not undergo evaluation since they were not offered or had no graduates at the time when the evaluation of the corresponding normal education programs was taking place, should apply concurrently with the next evaluation of their normal education programs.
