The Eskisehir Technical University Undergraduate Education-Teaching and Exam Regulation, which was published in the Official Gazette on September 19, 2018, is applied regarding the measurement and evaluation methods applied in the courses in the program, success grades and exams.

Article number 18 of the regulation explains the success evaluation:

The type and percentage information of the midterm and final exams, homework, practice, etc. evaluations of the courses are entered into the student information system database by the instructor giving the course within the first 2 weeks of the term and announced to the students on the course introduction page over the internet. The contribution of the midterm evaluations to the success grade cannot be less than 30% and more than 60%. In applied courses where only a final exam is held, the contribution of the final exam to the success grade is 100%. The student's course success is determined with one of the letter grades by the instructor who teaches the course, considering the general success level of all students taking that course. The letter grades and related coefficients to the success level are as follows:

AA 4.00

AB 3.70

BA 3.30

BB 3.00

BC 2.70

CB 2.30

CC 2.00

CD 1.70

DC 1.30

DD 1.00

FF 0.00

In addition to these letter grades;

ÇK: Withdrew,

DV: In progress,

DZ: Absent,

EK: Incomplete,

KL: Removed,

SD: Not responsible,

YT: Sufficient (without coefficient and not included in the grade point average),

YZ: Insufficient (without coefficient and not included in the grade point average)

letter grade evaluations can also be made.

The measurement and evaluation methods used for each course in the program are defined and shared by the relevant faculty member in the Eskisehir Technical University ECTS package and the course syllabus on the department web page.

The program systematically evaluates the knowledge, skills, analytical thinking, critical evaluation and creativity capacities of the students and documents this success with a 4.00 grading system. In project-based courses, the methods of measuring success include assignments, presentations, discussions and the jury evaluation system. Jury evaluations assess the students' project presentations according to predetermined criteria and evaluate their performance by examining the process files (research reports, sketches, mock-up visuals). Written exams, assignments and other evaluation tools are used in theoretical and practical courses.

Criterion-based evaluation, multiple measurement methods and feedback mechanisms are applied to ensure transparency and fairness in the evaluation processes. The criteria are determined at the beginning of the semester and announced to the students. In practical courses such as project courses, the jury members make their evaluations independently and the results are calculated with the arithmetic mean. Online tools and rubric systems support and facilitate the evaluation process. Students can exercise their right to appeal within three days of the announcement of grades; official appeals can be made within five working days of the announcement of exam results. Documents are archived for two years against appeals.

If students apply for courses and grades, they have taken from other higher education institutions in Turkey or abroad within the first week of their final registration to Eskisehir Technical University, their credit and grade transfer requests will be evaluated by the relevant education unit's board of directors and a decision will be made once and covering their entire education.
