NOTES
1) The 2022 curriculum will be implemented for all students starting from the 2022-2023 Academic year.
2) According to the Senate decision dated 16.06.2017 regarding trilingual education, it is required for all departments of our University that students have at least B2 level proficiency in Turkish, English, and Arabic languages as a graduation requirement.

a- The Psychology Undergraduate Program Curriculum is arranged to allow students to meet these requirements by taking Arabic courses for 4 semesters, and for international students, additional Turkish courses for 4 semesters. Students will be able to enroll in the language course that is appropriate for their level only, which will be determined by the Language School through proficiency assessment exams.

b- Students who have the required level of language proficiency or who can meet these requirements before 4 semesters have passed will take the general elective courses specified in the curriculum instead of the Arabic courses coded ARA 301, ARA 302, ARA 303, ARA 304 and the Turkish courses coded TUR 301, TUR 302, TUR 303, TUR 304. International students are required to take at least two Turkish courses that are suitable for their level, which will substitute for the TLL101-102 courses.
3) For graduation from the Psychology undergraduate program, it is mandatory to take and pass at least one (1) elective course from Area 1, Area 2, and Area 3 separately.
4) All courses included in the undergraduate curricula of Ibn Haldun University, including language courses, as well as Psychology Department elective courses, can be taken as general electives.
