FACULTY OF ARTS AND SCIENCES - Physics - Lisans
General Description |  |
HistoryThe Physics Department, founded in 1997-1998 as a part of Karadeniz Techical University Rize Science and Arts Faculty, and continued it's education as Rize University according tothe decision of the Council of Ministers, March 17, 2006 and published in the official newspaper 01.03.2006. In 2012 the university name changed to Recep Tayyip Erdogan University.
Study in the Physics Department consists of a four years Bachelor Degree. The Physics Department accepts 30 students and the total student numbers in the year 2011-2012 was 143. Although the language of instruction is Turkish, some elective courses may be offered in English.
Qualification AwardedGraduates that fulfill all the requirements of the programme successfully will recieve a "Bachelor Degree in Physics".
Level of Qualification (Short Cycle , First Cycle , Second Cycle, Third Cycle)Specific Admission RequirementsAcceptance and registration are carried out through high school diploma, SSPC exam result and documents required in SSPC guide.
Specific Arrangements For Recognition Of Prior Learning (Formal, Non-Formal and Informal)Recognition of learning(formal) in higher education instutions, transfers between equivalent degree programmes in undergraduate and graduate students of faculties, vocational schools of different higher education instutions or different degree programmes of same higher education institutes, regulations of credit transfers in double major and minor is made under the "Regulations of credit transfers in double major, minor and transfers between graduate and undergraduate programmes in higher education institutes" of Board of Higher Education Institutes. Recognition of formal learning has not been started in all programmes of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University. However, exemption exams are held in the beginning of each academic year for English and similar courses in teaching plans of programmes. Student who believe they meet the requirements are free to take the exams. Students that pass these exams are exempt from these courses.
Qualification Requirements and RegulationsThe study period in the Physics Department is 4 years. Students need to successfully complete 240 ECTS credits from compulsory and elective courses in the education programme and have an average of 2.00.
Profile of The ProgrammeThe Department of Physics consists of Solid State Physics, Atom and Molecul Physics, Nuclear Physics, General Physics and High Energy and Plazm Physics. The purpose of the Physics Department is to teach the analysis and development of principles, methods and systems of physics in accordance with the rules and regulations of Turkish National Education and their mutual relations and to give education on the application of the principles and methods in scientific and technological fields. For this purpose, a good physicist with a modern level of scientific thinking skills and research capabilities, cogniscant of the practice of his/her profession, respectful of the human rights and ethical values, beneficial to self, family, nation and humanity is aimed at.
Occupational Profiles of Graduates With ExamplesPhysics has a broad application since it is closely related to mathematics, biology, social sciences and economics. Graduates have a wide range of work oppurtunities in the public and private sectors. Graduates may work as physics teachers in secondary education institutions and courses if they graduate from a secondary education teaching certificate programme. Graduates may also work as a teacher in fields of statistics, astronomy and space sciences if they are seen to be suitably qualified by the Ministry. Some physicists work in public institutions like TAEK, DİE, MTA, TEK, DSİ and some work in private institutions, such as computer programmer, controller, actuarial specialist and auditor. A successful university graduate is usually appointed to Lecturer and Research Assistant positions.
Access to Further Studies When candidates that have successfully completed their Bachelor Degree, have acquired a valid score in ALES and langauage exams, they may study in their fields.
Examination Regulations, Assessment and GradingTesting, measurement and evaluation, are made in accordance with Recep Tayyip Erdogan University "Undergraduate and Graduate Education Examination Regulations".
Graduation RequirementsGraduation requirements as described in the section "Qualification Requirements and Regulations".
