Program Learning Outcomes
A strong feature of the Curriculum and Instruction with Teaching Certificate (CITE) programme from Bilkent University Graduate School of Education is students' experience in schools. Each semester students have an internship in leading high schools in Ankara, Istanbul and Izmir, observing classes and teaching. In addition they have a five-week internship at Cambridge University and schools in England.
