The goals are ; to present a higher level education for students who have already a good grasp of physics knowledge, to present students such abilities that will enable them to gain experience and involve in original research studies. In addition, the program requires students to present a thesis work, which should include and emphasize the original work and relevant analysis / comments and literature survey by the student. Students needs to publish high quality publications of their reproducible research outputs via research papers (for international / national journals), and relevant conference meetings to meet graduation requirements.

Assessment and Grading
General information regarding examination regulations, assessment and grading can be found at http://oidb.karabuk.edu.tr/en/yonet/Lisansustu1.pdf Assessment and Grading methods most frequently used at the educational programs of Karabuk University are given below. Programmes utilize most of these methods in accordance with their educational aims and objectives.
The methods applied for assessment of the achievement of the expected program learning outcomes for the entire programme are shown below and those methods for the individual course units are given in the relevant section of the course description with their contribution to the final grades.
EXAMINATIONS
The success of students in achieving the expected learning outcomes of the each course unit within the curriculum of the programme is evaluated through assessments of in-term activities and final examination which takes place at the end of each semester.
Assessment of in-term activities includes a minimum number of a mid-term examination, short exam (quiz), assignment, project, and term paper as compulsory assessment methods for all the course units within all degree programmes defined by the Regulations. The programmes are encouraged to define more assessment methods for the in-term activities depending on their needs for measuring the achievements of the learning outcomes in the programme and course unit levels in order to ensure the educational aims and objectives. The nature and number of the assessment methods used for each course unit, together with their contribution to the final grades, are given under the title of “Assessment and Grading” in the sections of course descriptions. These arrangements are announced in advance at the beginning of each semester and published in the sections of the course descriptions on this web site.
Mid-term and final examinations are conducted in dates, places and times determined and announced by the University. The students’ final semester grade is given by their instructors based on mid-term examination, homework evaluation, short-examinations, final examination, and if there are other assessment methods and course activities such as attendance, they are also taken into consideration.
The contribution of assessment grades of the in-term activities to the final grade is 40 %, while the weight of the final exam is 60 % for all the course units within all degree programmes defined by the Regulations. The rates can be changed according to the Institute Board decision. The scores of all the examinations are given out of 100 points, and the passing grade is 75 out of 100 (3.00 out of 100).
