Summer Education

The principles regarding registration, the beginning and the end of the courses, and the examinations in summer education are determined by the Senate. Summer education is optional and the education period is seven weeks. This period also includes summer school final exams. Summer education can be opened at all educational stages with the approval of the Council of Higher Education. For each course opened in the summer education, lessons are taught between 20 and 28 hours a week, depending on the language level of the students in the English Preparatory Class, equal to the total number of hours taught in the fall and spring semesters. The time spent in summer education is not counted as academic time.
