History
The history of Gazi University Chemical Engineering Department is based on "Private Anatolian Chemical Engineering Collage" opened in 1968. In 1971, this college merged with "Private Yükseliş Collage of Engineering and Architecture" and "Private Zafer Collage of Engineering and Architecture" and joined the "Ankara State Collage of Engineering and Architecture" under the name of "Ankara Academy of Economic and Commercial Sciences". "Ankara State Engineering and Architecture Collage (A.D.M.M.Y.)" separated from Ankara Academy of Economic and Commercial Sciences and took the name of "Ankara State Engineering and Architecture Academy (A.D.M.M.A.)" which was established in 1973.
Our department continued its education and training activities under the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture established within Gazi University with the law enacted in 1982. In 1993, an evening education program was established within the Department of Chemical Engineering and two different programs were conducted as Normal Education and Evening Education Program. Since 1993, at least 30% of English lessons have been taught in both programs.
Engineering and Architecture Faculties were separated by a law enacted in 2010, and our department continues education and training within the Faculty of Engineering after this date. The Evening Education program was abolished with the decision of the Council of Higher Education in 2014, and a new program was replaced in 2015, in which 100% of the courses are given in English. Our program, which is given in English at a rate of 30%, has been accredited by the Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Education Programs (MÜDEK) from 2004 to 2020.
In our department, in accordance with the Gazi University Double Major's Second Undergraduate and Minor Program Regulations, there are also double major undergraduate and minor programs. The Erasmus program was initiated in 2003 and our students benefit from the program to study at universities with bilateral agreements. Likewise, students from abroad come to our department. With the Farabi program, they can attend universities in Turkey for a certain period (1 or 2 semesters) within bilateral agreements.
The education and training staff of two different programs in our department consists of 30 faculty members, 5 lecturers and 11 research assistants who have specialized in different subjects at universities in Turkey and abroad.

Graduation Requirements
Graduation requirements are as stated in "GAZİ UNİVERSITY GRADUATE EDUCATION AND EXAMINATION REGULATIONS".
Occupational Profiles of Graduates
Graduates of the PhD program of Chemical Engineering are strong candidates basically for academic careers and advanced research positions. In addition, they may also be employed by relevant public and private companies for senior positions in R&D departments.
Assessment and Grading
Measurement and Evaluation
(1) Students take the final exam and/or the final project in addition to the mid-term exams and/or mid-term studies. Examination calendar is published on the website of the related academic department.
(2) The success of the students is evaluated with the methods and criteria which are stated on the course description forms that are declared at the beginning of semester.
(3) Students are obliged to succeed in must courses. They can reselect a failed elective course or select another elective instead.
(4) Mid-term exams and/or mid-term studies and final exam and/or the final project are evaluated over 100 raw points. Letter success grades over 100 raw points are given for seminars, thesis studies, term project courses and proficiency exams. To succeed in courses, the minimum letter success grades must be CC for master?s degree and CB for doctorate and integrated (post bachelor) doctorate.
(5) A student whose raw point is under 25 fails the course by receiving an (FF) grade directly. The success grade of a student whose raw point is 25 or above is evaluated with the grades of which coefficients and definitions are stated below considering the general status of the class, average points and statistical range. After this evaluation, it is possible for the letter success grade equivalents of raw points that are 25 and above to be (FF).
(6) Coefficients and letter success grades are evaluated as shown below:
a)
Coefficients Letter Success Grades
4.00 AA
3.50 BA
3.00 BB
2.50 CB
2.00 CC
1.50 DC
1.00 DD
0.50 FD
0.00 FF

b) The letter grades other than the ones in the clause ?a? are:
1) D: Absent 2) G: Not attended 3) E: Incomplete (The E grades which are not corrected until after 3 weeks from the finalization of letter success grades are converted to FF) (7) The CumGPA is calculated via dividing the final grades of all of the courses throughout a student?s study period by the total number of credits. The obtained CumGPA is shown with two decimals after the point. (8) While calculating both the GPAs of semesters/years and the CumGPA, the letters grades from AA to FF are based on. G and D grades are processed as FF. (9) All grades are included in the transcripts of students. (10) For graduation, the CumGPA must be 2,50/4,00 minimum for master?s degree with or without thesis; 3,00/4,00 minimum for doctorate or integrated (post bachelor) doctorate programmes. Despite completing all the credits, students who cannot provide the graduation conditions take new courses to do so. (11) Students who do not provide the attendance conditions or other course requirements cannot take the final exam of the course and are regarded as absent (D).
