They will have the ability to learn lifelong, access information, and be aware of and constantly renew themselves on discipline-specific issues such as the detection and diagnosis of diseases, pests and weeds within the scope of Plant Protection study subjects, determination of the control method, eradication, selection of the plant protection product to be used, application method and time.

9-	Acting in accordance with ethical principles in interdisciplinary issues with Plant Protection, gain professional and ethical responsibility and gain knowledge about the laws and regulations used in agricultural engineering practices.

10-	They will gain knowledge about professional life practices such as writing and managing projects related to the field of Plant Protection, making risk analysis and deciding on the method of struggle; and will have awareness about entrepreneurship and innovation.

11-	Have knowledge about the effects of Plant Protection practices on health, environment and safety in universal and societal dimensions and the problems of the age reflected in the field of Plant Protection, and be aware of the legal consequences of Plant Protection solutions.

Exam Regulations & Assesment & Grading

Midterm exam 40%, Final 60%.

Graduation Requirements

In order to obtain a bachelor's degree in Plant Protection in Agricultural Engineering, students must successfully complete all compulsory and elective courses (equivalent to a total of 240 ECTS) in the program, obtain a GPA of at least 2.0 out of 4.00, and pass the internship.

Occupational Profiles of Graduates

Students who graduate from the program receive the title of agricultural engineer and can apply the information they have learned during the Plant Protection Department education in the agricultural production field. They can find employment opportunities in the private sector, public institutions and organizations by using their knowledge and experience in the recognition and control of agricultural diseases, pests and weeds.

Access to Further Studies

Students who successfully graduate from the Faculty of Agriculture can study in Master's and Doctorate programs by fulfilling the necessary conditions for Master's and Doctorate programs.

Mode of Study

The aim of this program is to teach the determination, definition and control of insects, mites, nematodes, abiotic and biotic (fungi, bacteria, phytoplasma, spiroplasma, viruses and viroids) factors and weeds that cause economic damage to crop plants in order to prevent the damage they cause to plant production. At the end of this four-year undergraduate education, the title of Agricultural Engineer is given to graduates of the Department of Plant Protection.
