| History | | The Department of Biology was opened in the 2008-2009 academic year under Bozok University, Institute of Science and Technology, and it still continues its education program under the Bozok University Graduate School. | | Qualification Awarded | | Master Degree | | Level of Qualification (Short Cycle , First Cycle , Second Cycle, Third Cycle) | | Second Cycle | | Specific Admission Requirements | | You can find information on application and admission requirements for the Master's program at https://www.mevzuat.gov.tr/mevzuat?MevzuatNo=21510&MevzuatTur=7&MevzuatTertip=5. | | Specific Arrangements For Recognition Of Prior Learning (Formal, Non-Formal and Informal) | | Formal | | Qualification Requirements and Regulations | | In order to obtain a master's degree in biology, students are required to study at least 2 semesters of courses and 2 semesters of thesis period. In order to pass to the thesis period, at least eight courses must be taken and succeeded, not less than 24 credits, excluding the department seminar course. | | Profile of The Programme | | There are five branches of science in the Department: General Biology, Botany, Zoology, Hydrobiology and Molecular Biology. The main goal of the Department of Biology is to educate graduates who have all the powers and responsibilities provided by the laws as biology graduate graduates who have the knowledge and skills to define, explain, apply, decide, and teach the basic principles of Biology. | | Occupational Profiles of Graduates With Examples | | The main purpose of the Department of Biology is to train “High Biologists” who are authorized to research, examine, produce, control and report on all kinds of subjects and fields of study directly or indirectly related to living things. Regarding the field of specialization of the biologist; in institutions and organizations providing health services, in medical research and support units, in the fields of environmental protection and control, in the fields of ecological planning, in the field of biotechnology, in research and production activities related to aquatic environments, in the fields of National Parks and Wildlife Management, in biology teaching and program development activities, EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) reports, agriculture and forestry areas, food control laboratories, biological treatment facilities, determination of biological product standards, criminology laboratories, forensic medicine, land, air and sea customs, biomedical study areas, pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical raw materials, cosmetic products It has the equipment to work in the fields of production and control of vector living things and in nuclear facilities. Those who have completed the biology master's program are entitled to receive the title of "higher biologist". Today, biologists work intensively as academicians in universities, in the health sector, in hydrobiology research centers, in the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, in the private sector with the authority to regulate EIA, and in the pharmaceutical and food industry. In addition, those who have a teaching certificate work in secondary schools and private teaching institutions affiliated to the Ministry of National Education or the private sector. | | Access to Further Studies | | Candidates who successfully complete their master's education can study in doctoral programs, provided that they get a valid grade from the ALES exam and have sufficient English language knowledge. | | Examination Regulations, Assessment and Grading | | Students are subjected to at least one midterm and final exam for each course. The contribution of the midterm exam to the success grade is 40% and the contribution of the final exam is 60%. All exams are evaluated over 100 points.
