| 1) Pursuant to the Senate decision of 16.06.2017 concerning trilingual education, students in all departments of our University are required, as a condition of graduation, to hold language proficiency at a level of at least B2 in each of Turkish, English and Arabic. a- The Course Plan has been designed to enable students to meet these requirements. Students' enrolment only in the language course matching their own level will be ensured through placement examinations administered by the School of Languages. b- International students who already possess Turkish language proficiency fulfil their ECTS obligations by taking general elective courses in place of the courses coded TUR 301 and TUR 302, TUR 303 and TUR 304. International students who hold Turkish proficiency at the B2 level are required to take at least two Turkish courses appropriate to their own level in lieu of TLL 101 and TLL 102. c- For students granted exemption from courses coded ARA, the courses from which they are exempted are shown with the grade "E," carrying credits and ECTS. | ||||||
| 2) In order to graduate from the Psychology undergraduate programme, a total of 45 courses amounting to 240 ECTS must be taken. At least one (1) departmental elective course must be taken and passed from each of Area 1, Area 2 and Area 3 separately. | ||||||
| 3) All courses included in the undergraduate curricula of Ibn Haldun University, including language courses, as well as Psychology departmental elective courses, may be taken as general electives. | ||||||
