IZMIR INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY MINIMUM ACADEMIC PROMOTION AND APPOINTMENT CRITERIA

*click here to view document in .docx file

Article 1 FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES

Promotion and appointment criteria determine the minimum level in the academic structure of İzmir Institute of Technology (IZTECH). Ensuring this level does not constitute a gaining right for the candidate. The merits are only a decisive criterion for the acceptance or rejection of promotion and assignment applications. In the evaluation of applications, it is obligatory to evaluate the academic qualification and performance of the candidate in detail. In the evaluation, the place of the candidate in the relevant discipline, his contribution to education, professional experience and contributions, the contributions he has brought or may bring towards the goals of the unit he applied for, his contribution to the university/unit management and other university services are taken into consideration. It is essential that promotions and appointments are open to applications from within and outside of IZTECH and encourage academic competition.

Since the language of instruction at IZTECH is English, it is required for the candidate to have English language knowledge and the ability to teach in English during the initial appointment to the faculty member staff. For this purpose, candidates are expected to give scientific seminars and trial lessons in English on the subject they are working on in the unit they apply. The provisions of the Regulation on Foreign Language Teaching in Higher Education Institutions and the Principles to be Followed in Teaching in a Foreign Language are applied in the English language score to be sought for transfer or vacant assignments to the teaching staff subject to this regulation. Izmir Institute of Technology is a university where qualified postgraduate education and research are carried out in line with the purposes of the Law No. 2547 and within universal academic criteria. However, our Institute acknowledges that scientific-academic in-breeding is an important problem that is against scientific development of universities. For this purpose, in principle, it does not approve the appointment of doctoral graduates who received their doctorate degree from IZTECH or whose advisors/assistant advisors are academicians at IZTECH, or doctoral graduates who worked as lecturers at IZTECH during the doctoral program. In line with this principle, it is preferred that faculty members working in academic units have also completed their doctoral studies with different advisors and in different institutions.

Article 2 APPLICATION

2.1 Application Petition and Addendum

In the first appointment and promotion of foreign faculty members, who are employed pursuant to Article 34 of the Law No. 2547, meeting at least 2 (two) times the minimum criteria determined for the relevant field of science is required. In the appointments (contract renewals) of assistant professor faculty members, meeting the re-appointment criteria set by the relevant field of science is required.

Article 7 EVALUATION REPORT

In order to evaluate the candidate’s application, a personal evaluation report is requested from the faculty members selected for the evaluation commission from the candidate’s field of science. In this report, it is clearly stated whether the candidate meets the criteria defined in the relevant articles and a report that is subjected to in-depth analytical examination in terms of the scientific publications and qualifications of the candidates is requested.

Apart from the acedemic evaluation, candidate’s
