Dear members of the University,
In line with the Ministry of Internal Affairs Circular issued subsequent to the decisions taken at the Presidential Cabinet Meeting on 17.11.2020, the Rectorate has decided to implement the following measures to prevent the spread of Covid 19 on our campuses.
1. All classes held face-to-face on campus as well as all BÜYEM trainings will continue online until 31 December 2020.
2. Our university dining halls will only provide take-away service, and it will not be possible to share a table in the cafeteria.
Dear Colleagues,
Students who take a leave of absence will continue to receive their stipends as scholarship students or their salaries as research personnel from the BAP sponsored projects provided that the project director approves that the student continues to contribute to the project. I would like to remind you that the approval should be granted between the 1st and the 5th of each month, over the Scholar Portal (Bilim İnsanı Portalı) as it has been until now.
Best regards,
Ayşın Ertüzün
