With ASIIN equivalency and accreditation session, 13 engineering labs, academic staff and curriculum, GAU Engineering Faculty Departments will enter European Union higher education zone.

Graduate students will have ASIIN and EUR-ACE® approval in their diplomas. And with this approval GAU graduates will create difference and awareness amongst others.

GAU Engineering Faculty Engineering Faculty academic programs have made a good progress during accreditation process by Europe Union’s leading science and engineering science superintending and accreditation corporation ASIIN (Accreditation Agency for Degree Programmes in Engineering, Informatics, the Natural Sciences and Mathematics). At the end of the process in December 2012 Engineering Faculty Academic Programs will be accredited by ASIIN.

In addition to Industrial Engineering based in Germany, Computer Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Industrial Engineering disciplines in the structure of GAU Engineering Faculties have been approved and entered equivalency session by ASIIN (which inspects science and engineering educations to EU standard and higher education system criteria in EU countries) After the inspection session they have expressed their positive impressions to university authorities. Dean of Engineering Faculty Zafer Ağdelen made important statements on GAU TV.
“We will Enter European Higher Education Zone”

Ağdelen stated that with the ASIIN equivalency and accreditation session GAU Engineering Faculty academic programs will enter European Union (EU) higher education zone. He also emphasized that session started with the inspection of TechnoPark laboratories’ technological infrastructure which is the center of engineering disciplines in addition to curriculum and scientific works of the lecturers. Also, accreditation and equivalency of ASIIN will be the proof of given higher education by the GAU Engineering Faculty departments with Europe Union quality and criteria.
“13 of the Scientific Laboratories are Above EU Criteria”

Ağdelen also stated that in order to give engineering education in world standards and carry student development to maximum level, infrastructure and technologic properties of Physics, Chemistry, Software Technologies Research and Development, Computer, Electronics, Ergonomics and Job Specification-Description, PLC and Microprocessor, Electrical Machines, Mechatronics, Software Development & Communication and Microwave laboratories have carried above European Union education criteria. He also emphasized that with GAU Girne Campus Techno-Park science center’s education laboratories, it will become center of attraction for sciences and engineering education.
“Graduates will have the approval of ASIIN and EUR-ACE® in their Diplomas”

Ağdelen pointed the importance of ASIIN and EUR-ACE® approval, which will take place in the diploma of the graduated GAU students. He said that approval of ASIIN and EUR-ACE® in the diploma of GAU Engineering Faculty will create difference for GAU graduates. With the beginning of equivalency session of ASIIN, GAU will create difference and awareness amongst other engineering faculties.
“It is an Important Reference to Recognition of Higher Education in TRNC”

According to Ağdelen, with the end of ASIIN accreditation session it will be certain that GAU is in Europeanhigher education zone and giving education in Europe Union standards. And it is an important reference to recognition of higher education TRNC. And session will make important contributions to student development and success in students’ career.
