The first year is a preparatory stage in which basic information is given in terms of general culture and professional knowledge. One of the main objectives of science education division is to run four-year graduate program based on contemporary approaches. The aims of the program are that teacher candidates are able to; -know and use contemporary assessment and evaluation approaches -design learning environments by means of instructional technologies -use different special teaching methods and techniques in their teaching -follow new developments and innovations in their field.

The Science Teaching is located in B Block. The building where the program is located, has a total of 30 classrooms, 3 seminar halls, 1 conference hall for 380 people, 4 computer labs, 4 science laboratories (physics, chemistry, biology and science applications), 1 library.

(1) The grade point represents the 4-point scale equivalent of the raw grade point average calculated by taking into account the midterm and final exam scores of the students according to the prescribed weights. Relative or absolute evaluation system is used in the calculation of students' grade points. Whether the relative or absolute evaluation system will be used in the units is determined by the proposal of the unit council and the approval of the Senate.

(2) The principles of measurement and evaluation for relative and absolute evaluation systems, the conditions and limits for participation in the grade point calculation in the relative evaluation system, and the principles regarding the success levels are determined by the Senate.

(3) In both evaluation systems, students who do not take the final exam or makeup exam for a course and who cannot score at least 50 points out of 100 in this exam are considered unsuccessful. This limit may be changed by the proposal of the relevant unit council and the Senate decision. In units where makeup exams are not held and where midterm evaluations are weighted, there is no minimum grade requirement for passing the course from the final exam.

(4) The courses for which the student receives KM and G grades are not taken into account in the calculation of the CGPA.
