Individuals who hold a bachelor's degree in one of the fundamental and applied science fields such as Materials Science and Nanotechnology Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering, and who meet the application requirements published by the TOBB ETU Graduate School of Science and Engineering, are eligible to apply for the master's program.
In the MNT program, the graduate examination regulations specified in our university's legislation are applied (https: //www. mevzuat. gov. tr/mevzuat?MevzuatNo=8039&MevzuatTur=8&MevzuatTertip=5). According to these regulations: 1. MNT students may take four types of exams: quizzes, midterm exams, final exams, and make-up exams. These exams can be conducted in written, oral, both written and oral, and/or practical formats. Except for quizzes, exam dates are announced by the Rectorate, relevant departments, or faculty members at least one week before the exam. There is no requirement to notify students in advance about quizzes. 2. At the beginning of the semester, the instructor informs students about the weighting of midterms, final exams, assignments, practicals, and other coursework, as well as attendance requirements, in the course syllabus. 3. Students must attend exams on the announced date, time, and location, and bring their identification documents along with any other required materials. 4. If it is determined that a student does not meet the necessary requirements for an exam, their exam score will be annulled, even if it has already been announced. 5. Exam papers are stored by the university for at least two years from the exam date. 6. Students can review their graded written exam papers on the date and time specified by the instructor. 7. Students may appeal their written exam grades only due to clerical errors. Appeals must be submitted in writing to the relevant department within seven business days (excluding Saturdays) following the announcement of grades online. 8. Exams taken during an officially excused medical leave are considered invalid. 9. Any student caught cheating, attempting to cheat, aiding cheating, or disrupting the exam environment will have their exam invalidated. Cheating incidents are documented by the exam proctors, and the disciplinary procedures outlined in the Higher Education Institutions Student Disciplinary Regulation (published in the Official Gazette on January 13, 1985, issue no. 18634) are applied.
The type of education is Full-Time First Education. Courses are conducted face-to-face in the classroom.
The graduation requirements for students enrolled in the Master's Program are as follows: https: //www. etu. edu. tr/tr/enstitu/fen-bilimleri-enstitusu/mezuniyet-icin-gerekli-kosullar
Our graduates primarily work in sectors such as defense, automotive, energy, chemistry, pharmaceuticals, and medical materials, as well as in scientific research institutions. They take on guiding, technical, or administrative leadership roles in their organizations. Many pursue doctoral studies and engage in academic research. They work in positions such as R&D, design, production transition, systems engineering, and quality control engineering, or become entrepreneurs by establishing their own companies.
