FOUNDATION & HISTORY  
The department of Metalurgical and Materials Engineering was founded in 2003. BSc.education was started in 2006. The students qualified for education in the MSc. program are required to complete successfully a one-year of English preparation course before proceeding to the Master program. The MSc. program was started in 2007.
QUALIFICATION AWARDED  
The students who have successfully completed a minimum of 21 local credits (equivalant to 60 ECTS credits) from thought courses delivered within the graduate programme of the department and in related fields, achieved a CGPA of at least 2.00 out of 4.00 and prepared and successfully defended a thesis are given Master's Degree in METALLURGICAL AND MATERIALS ENGINEERING
LEVEL of QUALIFICATION:  
Qualifications Frameworks in the European Higher Education Area (QF-EHEA), Level 2
European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning (EQF-LLL), Level 7  
MODE of STUDY  
Full Time
ADMISSION & REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS  
1 - Bachelor's Degree in acceptable fields, 2 - Sufficient score from the National Academic Staff & Graduate Education Exam (ALES), 3 - English proficiency.
OBJECTIVE of THE PROGRAMME  
Established in a region where metallurgy and materials occur widely, Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering carries out a curriculum to educate students to become expert metallurgists who can take a role in the search and extraction of ferrous and non-ferrous materials, search for their causes and produce solutions for them.
RECOGNATION of PRIOR LEARNING  
The "Directive on Recognition of Prior Learning", Senate Decision No. 340 issued on July 28, 2023, has been accepted and entered into force regarding the students registered in all programs of Karadeniz Technical University to determine the principles to be followed for the recognition, crediting, and adaptation of the achievements acquired by the students at non-university institutions.

In this Directive,

- recognition of knowledge, skills, and competencies acquired with special interest through an exemption exam to be substituted as program courses,
- recognition of workplace and internship experiences through portfolio evaluation to be substituted as program courses,
- and the crediting of certificates received from accredited institutions regarding students' special interests are covered.

Announcements of courses included in the scope of recognition of prior learning, applications, and evaluation will be made on the dates specified in the academic calendar. Recognition of prior learning will offer numerous benefits to our students and employers. For our students, increasing professional development and mobility in the labour market, preventing repetition of education and waste of time, providing early graduation, reducing the cost of learning, encouraging learning, and increasing the student's motivation and self-confidence can be counted among the benefits of recognition of prior learning. From the employers' perspectives, it will contribute to satisfying skill or competence deficiencies in the workplace, reducing the time employees spend outside the workplace for training purposes, and thus using resources more efficiently.
QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS and REGULATIONS  
To be able to secure the Master of science degree in the field of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering, the students are required to; (a) have passed a total of 21 credits (60 ETCS) courses in the curiculum with a grade of at least CC, (b) have achieved a cumulative gross point average of at least 2.00 out of 4.00, (c) prepared a master thesis, submitted and successfully defended with a passing grade.
