571 MINING TECHNOLOGY

GENERAL INFORMATION
Department of Mining and Mining Production Department of Mining Technology started education and training in 2013. Our department graduated its students with the title of "Mining Technician" in 2015.

Objective
The basic aim of this programme is to bring up Technician for Mining Technologies by developing their theory and practical knowledge. The basic skills of students are established by practicing group and individual works in regards to those courses obtained during education process.


Admission Requirements
According to the results of the Higher Education Institutions Examination (YKS) conducted by the Student Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM) to the Mining Technology Program, they are accepted from the TYT score type. For more information, you can use https://www.osym.gov.tr/.

Graduation Requirements
In order for a student to graduate from the Mining Technology program: Having a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.30 out of 4.00, Successful in all the compulsory courses in the education program, Successful in all other studies envisaged in the program, Completing a total of 120 ECTS workload, His graduation must have been decided by the relevant board of directors. Students whose graduation decision is made are given a diploma in accordance with the provisions of the relevant legislation.

Career Opportunties
Our graduates can easily find jobs as mining technicians in private and public institutions operating in mining. The need for intermediate staff in mines and ore enrichment facilities, the number of which is increasing day by day, increases the chances of finding a job for people in this profession. In accordance with the implementation principles determined by the Higher Education Council with the "Regulation on the Continuation of Vocational School Graduates to Undergraduate Education" published in the Official Gazette dated 19.02.2002 and numbered 24676, successful students who graduated from Vocational Schools programs can vertically transfer to formal education undergraduate programs. Undergraduate programs that our students can get into: Mining Engineering Metallurgy and Materials Engineering Geological Engineering

Qualification Awarded
Mining Technology

Level of Qualification
Short Cycle (Associate's Degree)

Recognition of Prior Learning
For students who want to transfer from higher education institutions in Turkey to Pamukkale University, the provisions of the "Regulation on the Principles of Transfer between Associate Degree and Undergraduate Degree Programs in Higher Education Institutions, Double Major, Minor and Inter-Institutional Credit Transfer" are applied. The common compulsory foreign language courses exemption exam is held at the beginning of the fall semester on the date specified in the academic calendar. No make-up exam is allowed for this exam. Students of faculties/vocational schools/schools who do not have a preparatory program take the joint compulsory foreign language exemption exam. Students who will take the exemption exam apply to the relevant unit within the period specified in the academic calendar. Also; Students who enroll in departments with foreign language preparatory programs for the first time take a placement and proficiency exam before the academic year starts. Students are placed in one of the beginner, intermediate-lower level or intermediate level groups according to the scores they get in this exam, or those who have proficiency points are exempted from preparatory education. The score ranges of these groups are determined by the School Directorate. Exam results are announced in relevant places and on the website of the School of Foreign Languages.

TEACHING & LEARNING METHODS
NameComments
LecturingLecturing is one of the methods that come first, where the teacher is in the center. It is a method where the teacher actively describes topics and the students are passive listeners. With this method, lesson proceeds in the form of report, description and explanation.
DebateDepending on the situation, debate is a tool that allows all students, or a specific portion of the class to participate in the lesson. In this method, members of the group discuss a topic by addressing the various points of view and discuss alternative opinions about problem-solving.
DemonstrationIn this method the teacher demonstrates, an experiment, test, in front of the class. And then assists students to do so too. Students learn not only by just by looking and watching, but also by taking part and participating. This method is usually applied when teaching skills.
Case Study Case studies require students to actively participate while using an analytical perspective to think about real and problematic events. The problematic event may be real or very close to real life. Student(s) working on the documents that include the necessary data and descriptions of the
Problem SolvingThe name given to any doubt or ambiguity that arises is, a problem. Problems which usually have a role in human life, that have preventing or annoying aspects are solved by considering the stages of scientific methods. (a) Problems are determined. (b) The problem is identified. 
Cooperative LearningCooperative Learning is; a kind of learning that is based on the students working together for a common purpose. Children with different skills come together in heterogeneous groups to learn by helping each other. Students gain experiences such as becoming aware of the unity
PerformanceIn this method, the teacher performs activities such as experiments and demonstrations in front of the class, students try to learn by looking and watching. This method is usually applied where there are limited facilities and in dealing with dangerous experimental situations.
Questions –AnswersThe different types of Questions used (associative, differential, assessment, requesting information, motivating, and brainstorming) although students get in to more active positions during the process; the method is teacher-centered. If possible Questions, that serve a purpose and
Simulation Expresses situations where in real life learning is dangerous, difficult to reach and expensive and where students work on models which are very similar to the real thing. For example, before airplane pilots and astronauts embark their aircrafts and spacecrafts, they perform applications
ProjectProject-based learning is a learning way which leads students to deal with interesting problems and to create extraordinary products at the end of this. It allows students to use their creativity and it requires them to look at events perceptively.
Technical TourIs a method that takes learning to the out of the classroom. It is a method that provides students to make direct observations and to gain information by taking them to places, such as factories, museums, libraries, various government agencies, mountains, forests, lakes, parks and gardens.
