Doctor of Philosophy in Materials Science and Nanotechnology
Admission: Applicants are required to have a bachelor's degree in materials science and
nanotechnology, or a related field of science (physics, mathematics, chemistry, molecular
biology and genetics) or engineering (electrical and electronics, mechanical, chemical,
materials science, metallurgy, food). Evaluation of applicants is based on their ALES
(Akademik Personel ve Lisansüstü Eğitimi Giriş Sınavı -
Academic Personnel and Postgraduate Education Entrance Examination) scores, academic track records,
reference letters and an interview. Applicants who are not Turkish citizens and Turkish citizen
applicants who are residents of another country may take GRE (Graduate Record Examination)
instead of ALES. All non-native speakers of English are required to submit proof of satisfactory
knowledge of English.
Degree Requirements: 21 credit units of course work beyond the M.S. level or 42 credits
of course work beyond the B.S. level is required.
Ph.D. candidates must pass a qualifying exam, typically in their fourth semester; and then must prepare a dissertation proposal.
Preparation and defense of a dissertation based on original research is the centerpiece of the program. The expected duration to complete
the Ph.D. program is eight semesters for students who enter the program after an M.S. degree,
and ten semesters for those who enter after a B.S. degree. The maximum durations are twelve and
fourteen semesters, respectively.
