Atatürk University achieved the highest classification in Turkey by increasing the number of programs eligible to display the TYÇ Logo from 40 to 58 as a result of its successful efforts.

The right to use the Turkish Qualifications Framework (TYÇ) Logo in graduation certificates for accredited higher education programs by the Council of Higher Education (YÖK) has become an important criterion for universities providing education at international standards within the framework of compliance with the European Higher Education Area (EHA).


In this context, the TYÇ Logo provides graduates with advantages in the international arena, ensuring that diplomas are recognized more quickly overseas and increasing employment opportunities. Furthermore, this logo enables the direct recognition of internship qualifications and study periods spent abroad in higher education, in addition to promoting horizontal and vertical student mobility.

"This accomplishment is predicated on the diversity of programs and the quality of education."

Prof. Dr. Ahmet Hacımüftüoğlu, the Rector of Atatürk University, underscored the university's educational quality and program diversity in his assessment of this accomplishment. Hacımüftüoğlu: "At Atatürk University, we have consistently prioritized the provision of our students with high-quality educational opportunities and possess a broad academic spectrum." The fact that we have increased the number of our programs that have earned the right to carry the TYÇ Logo to 58 is a clear indication that we are providing education at international standards and taking the necessary measures to ensure that our graduates are able to stand out in global competition. He stated, "This is not only a quantitative but also a qualitative success."

The factors that contributed to this success were highlighted by Rector Hacımüftüoğlu, who also stated, "As a university, we are committed to the future success of our students and design and update each of our programs accordingly." Our programs, which feature the TYÇ Logo, guarantee that our graduates are acknowledged internationally and are more readily accepted into the labor market. In this regard, we will persist in our efforts to guarantee that our students are adequately prepared to meet international standards.

University of Atatürk, Turkey's Leader

The institution's determination to advance in accordance with its strategic objectives is demonstrated by the fact that Atatürk University has become a leader in Turkey due to the increase in the number of programs featuring the TYÇ Logo. Rector Hacımüftüoğlu expressed his gratitude to all academic and administrative personnel, with a special emphasis on the Quality Coordination Department, for their contributions to the success. He stated, "This success is the outcome of exceptional teamwork." We will persist in our role as a national and international model as Atatürk University.
