There are 12 departments in our faculty. 9 departments of our faculty, whose aim is internationalization in education, have been accredited by the German accreditation institution AQAS (Agency for Quality Assurance through Accreditation of Study Programs), and accreditation studies are continuing in 3 newly opened departments. Within the scope of accreditation studies; Our faculty has been certified by an independent institution, which is a member of the European Quality Assurance Association, that it provides education in accordance with European standards and principles.
 
The curriculum of each department is meticulously prepared and implemented by academics who closely follow the developments in their fields, in line with the internationalization strategy of our university.
