“Intensive Online Education Term” for 2019-2020 Spring Term and the Update on the Current Academic Calendar - 3
Dear Students,
At our University, online distance education process for 2019-2020 Academic Year Spring Semester started on May 23, 2020; thereafter, in the meeting of The Council of Higher Education (YÖK) on May 11, 2020, it was decided that final exams as well as other exams of this year are to be administered online.
In this respect, in addition to the previous updates on the Academic Calendar regarding our ongoing online education process for 2019-2020 Academic Year Spring Term, a need arose to create an additional calendar for “Intensive Online Education Term”.
After the studies carried out on the issue, the Academic Calendar created for “Intensive Online Education Term” and other updates previously provided on the Calendar were rearranged as follows.
Best Regards.
