Molecular Biology and Genetics, an ever-developing, interdisciplinary branch of science, investigates the basic properties, structures and functions of the molecules that make up life, their interactions with each other, and the cellular responses that result from these interactions. The Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics is an innovative and qualified program that produces entrepreneurs, researchers, international qualifications, committed to ethical values, understanding the functioning of living things at the molecular level, applying their knowledge for the benefit of society and developing solutions to problems. The department, which started education in the 2000-2001 academic year within the body of Haliç University Faculty of Arts and Sciences, gave its first graduates in 2004. It continues its education with its expert academic staff. In addition to his undergraduate education, he started to provide education in the field of graduate education in the 2004-2005 academic year. Haliç University Molecular Biology and Genetics Department offers education opportunities to students with its high quality education program, well-equipped laboratory infrastructure and expert and experienced faculty members. In the first two years of the undergraduate program, mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology courses, which are mainly basic science courses, are given in order to provide students with a scientific background. In the last two years, compulsory theoretical and laboratory courses such as molecular biology, molecular genetics, molecular biology techniques and molecular biology applications, cell molecular biology are given. Apart from this, in addition to the compulsory courses on cancer biology and genetics, genetic engineering, stem cell biology, RNA world, bioinformatics, molecular microbiology and microbial technology courses, field and non-field elective courses are given in special fields so that students can explore different aspects of their departments. At the end of 4 years, our students complete the program as well-equipped, sought-after and preferred graduates in the field. Thanks to the equipment they have acquired during their undergraduate education, graduates are preferred in R&D centers, genetic laboratories of hospitals, private genetic diagnosis laboratories, IVF centers, Forensic Medicine Institute, agriculture, livestock and pharmaceutical sectors, or they can continue their careers as academicians. Molecular Biology and Genetics Department also offers double major and minor programs with departments such as Mathematics, Engineering departments, Midwifery, Nutrition and Dietetics. In addition, students are given the opportunity to study abroad within the scope of the Erasmus Exchange Program. |

The Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics was founded in 2000-2001 Academic Year within the Faculty of Science and Letters of Haliç University. Our department graduated its first students in 2004 and continues providing education with its academic staff, who are experts in their fields. Besides our undergraduate program, our department has also started to offer a graduate education program since as of 2004-2005 academic year. Subsequent to the program change as part of Bologna Process since 2012, we have started to use European Credit System (ECTS). |
| Our graduates completing the two-year program of our curriculum are awarded “the Associate Degree in Molecular Biology and Genetics”, while the graduates completing our four-year curriculum are awarded “the Bachelor’s Degree in Molecular Biology and Genetics”. |
| Associate and undergraduate degree programs accept students according to the exam held by the Center for Evaluation, Selection And Placement (OSYM) or the decisions of the Council Of Higher Education (YOK). |
| Our graduates with a bachelor's degree can apply to master and doctorate programs in various fields such as Molecular Biology and Genetics, Genetic Engineering, Biology, Bioinformatics, Medical Biology, Medical Genetics, Pharmacogenetics, Food Engineering and Forensic Science. |

The academic standings of the students of the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics is determined with regard to “the Regulations of Haliç University on Associate Degree and Undergraduate Education” (1) Final grade refers to the equivalent of raw final grade in 4.00 grading system specified by reckoning students’ studies in a half year/year and their mid-term/final exam grades based on the prevenient weights; apart from single course, grade-increase and exemption exams. (2) Relative or absolute evaluation systems are used to calculate students’ final grades. The type of evaluation system is designated by the concerned Board of Directors before the beginning of an academic year. The Equivalence Table issued by the Council of Higher Education is utilized for the equivalence between 4.00 and 100 grading systems. (3) On the purpose of success evalution in a course; mid-term exams, additional exams, trainings in fields and working places, practices, assignments, projects, workshops, seminars, class attendance, laboratory and other relevant studies in a mid-term comprise 40% of the course evalution score. The instructor of the relevant course announces mid-term study types and the contributions of these studies and final exam grades to the final grade in the course and proclaims all the mid-term studies and final exam grades to the students. (4) In absolute evalution system, academic ranking is determined for raw academic rankings according to the absolute ranges laid down in this Directive. However, in relative evalution system, academic ranking is ascertained based upon average raw academic rankings and their statistical distribution. (5) Assessment and evaluation principles of relative and absolute evaluation systems, provisions and limitations of final grade calculations in the relative evaluation system and academic success levels are defined by the Senate and published on the website of University. (6) In both evaluation systems, the students, who do not take a final or re-sit examination of a course and who has not received 40 points out of 100 in the aforesaid examinations; fails the course. (7) The point and letter equivalences of academic ranking levels in the absolute evaluation system is given below: Final Grade Letter Grade Meaning Grade Range 4.00 AA Excellent 90-100 3.50 BA Very Good 80-89 3.00 BB Good 70-79 2.50 CB Fair 65-69 2.00 Acceptable 60-64 1.50 DC Partially Acceptable 55-59 1.00 DD Partially Acceptable 50-54 0.00 FF Fail 0-49 0.00 NA Not Attended 0 (8) Apart from the final grades in Article 7, students’ academic success level in a course is determined by use of nonnumeric expressions as shown below: a) NA (Not Attended): It is given for the courses which students have failed due to absence and treated as FF grade for credit courses and U grade for non-credit courses. b) I (Incomplete): It is given when students are not able to complete necessary course studies such as internship, project, assignment, laboratory experiments etc., even though they pass the course. It is mandatory to give a grade to those students who have received I grade, when they make up their incomplete studies in 15 days after the exam period. Otherwise, this grade turns into FF grade. c) S (Satisfactory): It is given to the students who have successfully completed their internships and credit courses. ç) T (Transfer/Exempt): It is given for the courses which had been taken in another higher education institution and accepted as exempt when its accreditation was approved by the concerned board of directors. d) W (Withdrawal): It is given for the courses from which students have withdrawn. e) P (Passing): It is given when students still attend non-credit courses which expand more than one semester. (9) The letter grades and coefficients mentioned in this Article applies for students’ course accreditation or evaluation of numeric grades taken in another higher education institution. (10) A student who receives one of AA, BA, BB, CB and CC is regarded as successful in the relevant course. |
