RESEARCH CENTERS

American Studies Center: Bahçeşehir University’s American Studies Center was founded in order to evaluate the historical dimensions of Turkish-American relations, to explicate the phases of this relation, and to make future projections taking into consideration the evidence obtained.

Turkish-American relations, which had formally started in 1830, attained a new dimension in 1946, with the onslaught of the Cold War followed by the Truman Doctrine in 1947. They sought a new identity with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War in the 1990s. Finally, turbulent days were ahead for the relationship between the U.S. and Turkey during the American Iraqi Operation starting in 2003. The future projections of Turkish-American relations need to be defined in order to be able to consider them at length.

Bahçeşehir University’s American Studies Center aims to emphasize the significance of Turkish-American relations in the upcoming years by evaluating their historical dimension.

The center created an opportunity for researchers and academics whose studies are in the field of Turkish-American relations to share their knowledge through such programs as The School of Politics in the U.S. and The Global Leadership Forum.

The center pioneers the formation of political, social and economic bonds between the two countries.

With its organizations, the American Studies Center envisages the reinforcement of Turkish-American relations and an analysis of these relations on civil and academic levels, contrary to the situation before 1990.

Thanks to speakers coming from the U.S, and Turkish academics and opinion leaders sent to the U.S. to make speeches in various Think-Tanks and institutions, better acquaintance and understanding between the two countries are achieved. Nonetheless, further analysis of the relations between the two countries is essential in terms of historical dimension.

In this aspect, the research conducted in BETAM aims to increase the social and economic welfare. Hence, the output is shared with academia, research centers, independent researchers and the public, in Turkey as well as abroad.

BETAM consists of three main units. In the Economic Research Unit, it focuses on the research and development of economic policy in Turkey and abroad from a comparative perspective.

School of Government and Leadership: The School of Government and Leadership is one of the original departments opened when the university was first founded and has always been a center that developed and expanded itself apace with the progress, growth and advancement of our university.

Recently, ‘leadership’ has become an independent research subject, a branch that should be treated separately rather than being analyzed under numerous disciplines. In a period in which the significance of leadership constantly augments, Bahçeşehir University School of Government and Leadership took considering this matter at length and researching it as its primary mission. It’s a center that believes that leadership is an initiative that can be taken by everyone, in every step of life and at any level; and in this context, it accelerated its studies.

School of Government and Leadership believes that leadership does not only consist of ‘pure talent’-which is a belief determined prescriptively. On the contrary, it believes that each person could influence a society’s political, social and economic life by acquiring profound knowledge on system, strategy and know-how. It sets a primary mission to assist to the practical and theoretical development of leader candidates who would like to serve their country, society and environment via different programs it organizes and certificate programs it implements.

School of Government and Leadership aims training people who would like to have a voice at Turkish politics by its School of Politics which is organized annually, managers and executives in businesses and local administrations by its programs organized with Koç-Yönder which includes important executives of business world within. Furthermore, with its international programs, it provides facilities for leader candidates who would like to get forward with their work in the domain of diplomacy. It also provides facilities for leader candidates who would like to move along within non-governmental organizations and associations via the Think-Tank seminars, diverse certificate programs and research panels it organizes. By the help of its academic publication works and ‘article group’ activities, it furnishes opportunities for those leader candidates who would like to improve in academic field, to have a voice and to publish their academic work. It has opened leadership studies to each segment of the society thanks to its public structure in which everyone can join; it showed that leadership is a phenomenon in which the whole public body should take place and action, rather than a specific class of people.

GRADES

Article 10.

For each course taken, the student is given one of the following grades by the course teacher using the curve system. The letter grades, coefficients and percentage equivalents are given below.

PERCENTAGE COURSE GRADE COEFFICIENT 90-100 A 4.0087-89 A- 3.6784-86 B+ 3.3380-83 B 3.0077-79 B- 2.6774-76 C+ 2.3370-73 C 2.0067-69 C- 1.6764-66 D+ 1.3360-63 D 1.00

59 and below F 0.00

I: Incomplete, S: Satisfactory Completion, PR: Satisfactory Progress, U: Unsatisfactory, NA: Not-attended, EX: Exempt, W: Withdrawn, NI: Not Included.

A grade of (I) is given to a student who provides valid documentation stating an illness or any other reason which has prevented her/him from completing the necessary course work. In these cases, the student must complete the missing work and obtain a grade within 15 days from the day of submitting the grades. Otherwise the (I) grade will automatically become an (F). In the case of prolonged illness and similar situations, this period can be extended until the beginning of registration for the next semester by the recommendation of the Department and approval of the related Administrative Committee.

The grade (S) is given to students who are successful in non-credit courses.

The grade (PR) is given to students who are successfully taking non-credit courses.

The grade (U) is given to students who are not successful in non-credit courses.

The grade (NA) is given to students who have failed to regularly attend courses or who have not fulfilled the requirements of the course. NA is processed as an F in computing grades.

The grade (EX) is given to students who have previously attended a higher education institution and entered the university with the University Entrance Examination, and to those who have transferred to the university from another higher education institution, on the condition that their courses from the other institution meet equivalence standards set by the related Administrative Committee after the proposal of the Department Chairperson. The grade EX can also be given to students who meet the conditions determined by the Senate. The grade EX is not included in the grade point average but is shown on the transcript.

The grade (NI) is given if courses within the program or programs in which a student is registered are taken on the “condition that they are not included in the Cumulative Grade Point Average”. This grade is indicated on the student's transcript together with the letter grade received from the course concerned. Such courses are included in the course load defined in article 5th of Academic Rules and Regulations and can not be used in the course counting process related to the program or programs the student is registered for. The courses from which (NI) grade is received can not be repeated. The status of courses taken in NI status cannot be changed within the same program.

The grade (W) is given if a student withdraws from a course after the add/drop period within the first 10 weeks of the semester, on the recommendation of her/his advisor and permission of the instructor concerned. The following rules apply to these students:

a) A student is not allowed to withdraw from courses appearing in the first two semesters of their curriculum – excluding courses in which they have previously obtained a passing grade and that they are repeating to improve their grade point average.

b) A student is not allowed to withdraw from courses she/he has to repeat, from which she/he received the grade W before, and/or from courses which are not included in the Grade Point Average.

c) A student is allowed to withdraw from a maximum of six courses during her/his undergraduate program (one course at the most in one semester), subject to the recommendation of their advisor and approval of their instructor.

Exchange students who study in the university within the framework of agreements signed between the university and other educational or governmental institutions in other countries can withdraw from the courses with the proposal of the Director of Exchange Programs and the permission of their instructor. The rules related to the grade (W) are not applied to these students.

The course grades are announced by the Registrar's Office.

ERRORS IN GRADING

Article 11.

Any objection to the grades announced by the Registrar’s Office is to be made within seven days following the announcement. In the event of any error on the Instructor's part in the grades announced by the Registrar's Office, the course instructor's application for correction will depend on the decision of the related Administrative Committee. Errors in grading, concerning the semester’s final examinations, have to be corrected within the registration period of the following semester.

GRADE POINT AVERAGES

Article 12.

The student's standing is calculated in the form of a Grade Point Average (G.P.A.) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (C.G.P.A.) and is announced at the end of each semester by the Registrar's Office. The total credit points for a course are calculated by multiplying the coefficient of the final grade by the credit hours. In order to obtain the G.P.A. for any given semester, the total credit points are divided by the total credit hours. The averages are given in two decimal points. The C.G.P.A. is calculated by taking into account all the courses that are recognized as valid, taken by a student since her/his entrance to the University, by the Department in which she/he is registered. Any given grade from A to F is taken as the basis for both the G.P.A. and the C.G.P.A. The most recent grade obtained for a repeated course is used to calculate the C.G.P.A. All the grades are shown on the student’s transcript.

SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS

Article 13.

Students whose C.G.P.A. and G.P.A. are at least 2.00 are considered successful. A student who, with at least a normal semester course load, obtains a G.P.A. of 3.00-3.49 at the end of a semester is considered as an honor student and who, with at least a normal semester course load, obtains a G.P.A. of 3.50-4.00 at the end of a semester is considered as a high honor student. The list of these students is announced at the end of each semester.

UNSATISFACTORY ACADEMIC RECORD

Article 14.

The standing of the undergraduate students whose cumulative grade point average (C.G.P.A.) or grade point average (G.P.A.) is below 2.00 is considered unsatisfactory. Of these students, those enrolled in their second term or higher can continue their studies only if their C.G.P.A. is above 1.80. If these students have a C.G.P.A. lower than 1.80, they repeat the courses they have previously taken until they raise their C.G.P.A. to 1.80. In this period, these students can enroll in only one new course. Repeating students cannot register for courses from which they have previously withdrawn and for courses not taken in the regular term. For all other courses Article 15 applies. For these students, the course load reductions as indicated in Article 5 may not be applied. The conditions under which students repeat courses are included in the maximum education period.

REPEATING COURSES

Article 15.

A student who has obtained the grades of F, NA, W or U or who has not taken a course during the normal semester must repeat it the next semester the course is offered. If the course is an elective or the course has been completely removed from the curriculum, students can be permitted to take an equivalent course to be determined by the Department concerned.

Students can repeat a course in which they have previously obtained a passing grade within 3 semesters following the semester when they first obtained the passing grade. If a course is repeated, the last grade is valid.

UNSUCCESSFUL STUDENTS IN THEIR FINAL SEMESTERS

Article 16.

A student is considered as a last semester student if she/he successfully completes the courses in the semester for which she/he is registered and fulfills all the requirements for getting a Bachelor's degree.

Students who have received a grade of F from at most two credit courses and/or a grade of U from at most one non-credit course in their last semester will be given an additional period until the beginning of the next coming semester in order to make up the failed classes or to take an examination. The grade received within this period replaces the final examination grade. Students' standing at the end of the semester is calculated using the grades received at the end of the additional period.

Even if students have not received a grade of F in their last semester, if their C.G.P.A. is less than 2.00, they can be given an additional period for the courses in which the grades of D, D+, C- or C were received in the last semester under the conditions prescribed above.

Students whose status meets the conditions of this Article should apply to the Registrar’s Office in which they are registered with a formal letter within one week after the final examination results are announced. After examining the student's status, the Registrar’s Office will inform both the instructors concerned and the student for which courses the additional periods are given. Additional periods and extra examination rights mentioned in this Article can be given to the student only once.

CONDITIONS FOR AWARDING BACHELOR'S DIPLOMA

Article 17.

Students must have a C.G.P.A. of not less than 2.00 and have completed all the credit courses in the program with a grade of D or higher –except for EX grades-, and the non-credit courses with a grade of S in order to graduate. Students whose C.G.P.A. is between 3.00 and 3.49 are listed as honor graduates and students whose C.G.P.A. is between 3.50 and 4.00 are listed as high honor graduates. Honor and High Honor standings are specified on the degree certificate.

In order to get the Bachelor's degree certificate from the University, transfer students must have spent their last two semesters at the University.

Students who cannot graduate within the stated periods are dismissed from the university. However, under the condition that the other requirements are met, those who have to take more than five courses to graduate are entitled to take a normal examination and a make-up examination in the courses that they have failed. Those who have reduced the number of courses they have failed to five at most (for graduation) as a result of these examinations are allowed an additional period of three semesters; those who have to take four or five courses without taking the additional examinations are allowed four semesters to complete these courses; and those who have to take three or fewer courses are allowed an unlimited additional period. Except for the courses based on practical work and those which have not been taken before, attendance is not required. The grades of the students who are not required to attend classes are determined by the mid-term and final examinations. The students who have been successful in all the courses required for graduation but who face dismissal because their C.G.P.A. is less than 2.00, are allowed an unlimited additional period of time to raise their C.G.P.A. by repeating courses in the last two years of their curriculum.

Students who have been given the right to continue their course work or to take examinations must register and pay tuition fees each semester.

PERCENTAGE COURSE GRADE COEFFICIENT90-100 A 4.0087-89 A- 3.6784-86 B+ 3.3380-83 B 3.0077-79 B- 2.6774-76 C+ 2.3370-73 C 2.0067-69 C- 1.6764-66 D+ 1.3360-63 D 1.00

59 and below F 0.00

I: Incomplete, S: Satisfactory Completion, PR: Satisfactory Progress, U: Unsatisfactory, NA: Not-attended, EX: Exempt, W: Withdrawn, NI: Not Included.

The grade (I) is given to a student who provides evidence through valid documentation of illness or other extenuating circumstance which has prevented her/him from completing the necessary course work. In such cases, the student must complete the missing work and obtain a grade within 15 days from the day of submitting the grades. Otherwise the (I) grade will automatically become an (F). In the case of prolonged illness and similar situations, this period can be extended until the beginning of registration for the next semester by the recommendation of the Department and approval of the related Administrative Committee.

The grade (S) is given to students who are successful in thesis, term project and other non-credit courses.

The grade (PR) is given to students who are successfully continuing thesis and term project courses.

The grade (U) is given to students who are not successful in thesis, term project and other non-credit courses.

The grade (NA) is given to students who have failed to regularly attend courses or who have not fulfilled the requirements of the course. NA is processed as an F in computing grades.

The grade (EX) is given to students who have transferred to the university from another higher education institution on the condition that their courses from the other institution meet equivalence standards set by the related Administrative Committee after the proposal of the Department Chairperson. The grade EX is not included in the grade point average but is shown on the transcript.

The grade (NI) is given if courses within the program or programs in which a student is registered are taken on the “condition that they are not included in the Cumulative Grade Point Average”. This grade is indicated on the student's transcript together with the letter grade received from the course concerned. Such courses cannot be used in the course counting process related to the program or programs the student is registered for. The courses for which (NI) grade is received can not be repeated. The NI status cannot be changed within the same program.

The grade (W) is given if a student withdraws from a course after the add/drop period within the first 10 weeks of the semester on the recommendation of her/his advisor and with the permission of the instructor. The following rules apply to these students:

a) A student is not allowed to withdraw from courses which she/he has to repeat, from which she/he received the grade W before and/or from courses which are not included in the Grade Point Average.

b) A student is allowed to withdraw from a maximum of two courses during her/his graduate program (one course at most in one semester), upon the recommendation of the advisor and with the approval of the instructor.

The semester course grades become final when they are submitted to the Registrar's Office, where the grades are announced.

GRADE POINT AVERAGE

Article 12

A student's academic standing is determined by calculating the grade point average at the end of each semester. The total credit point for a course is obtained by multiplying the course's credit hours by the final grade's coefficient. The grade point average (G.P.A.) of any semester is obtained by dividing the semester's total credit points by the number of credit hours taken by the student

in that semester. The G.P.A. obtained is given in two decimal points. The cumulative grade point average (C.G.P.A.) is based on all courses taken from time of admission until the completion of the graduate program including all the courses taken to meet the minimal course load stipulated by the Department. The most recent grade obtained for a repeated course is used in the calculation of the cumulative grade point average (C.G.P.A.). All grades, however, are shown on the student's transcript.

COURSE SUBSTITUTION

Article 13

Course substitution and related conditions of decreasing the length of the regular graduate program by considering the courses taken within the Deficiency program, the special student program, transfer issues, and previous graduate programs are determined by the Administrative Committee of the Graduate School.
