RECOGNITION OF MOBILITY
In order to give the transparency to the recognition procedures, ECTS system is used as a principle set out in the ECTS Users’ Guide. Ömer Halisdemir University ensures the full implementation of ECTS (or a compatible system) as a common tool to guarantee the quality of mobility activities and transparency of recognition procedures. Recognition procedures are used to ensure the student’s mobile activities at partner institutions recognition which is used by recording the taken courses in a transparent way by indicating original course or subject titles at the host institutions in national language and English. The credits gained abroad are recognized as an integral part of the student’s degree programs. All the credits that the students earns during the mobility period and which were originally agreed in the Learning Agreement are recognized by the home institution. It is no need for the mobile students to take any further courses or exams to make the taken courses valued in home institution. If the host institution does not use ECTS, a compatible system is implemented to ensure transparent recognition of study period abroad. The system is based on the credits calculated according to the workload and learning outcomes based on the guide. After the mobility period is completed by the student, the courses are also shown on the transcript of records and Diploma Supplement with the original names and codes depended on the programmes such as; for Erasmus programmes codes are shown with ERA code or for Protocol agreements made with non-EU countries with PRO, for Farabi programmes with FRB, etc. N.U. has been awarded with the Diploma Supplement Label.
