In addition, the courses can be chosen from the courses offered in the other higher education institutions with the recommendation of the advisor and the head of the relevant institute and the approval of the Institute Executive Board, as well as the courses that the consultant deems appropriate and necessary.

 A student in the master's program must write the results obtained in accordance with the thesis writing rules of the related institute and verbally defend his thesis before the jury. After the completion of the thesis exam, the jury makes the decision of acceptance, rejection or correction with absolute majority. The student, who has decided to correct his thesis, defends his thesis in front of the same jury by doing what is necessary within three months.
