Involve students in the learning process and present an individual curriculum
For each academic year, the student must submit an individual curriculum to participate in the learning process. The individual curriculum reflects the subjects that the student wants to study during the academic year, their relevant credits, and the list of teachers in the subjects.
The student's individual curriculum for each academic year is prepared on the basis of the curriculum of the specialty (specialization). The individual curriculum of the student is developed with the help of the academic advisor (tutor) in the form determined by him. In this case, prerequisites are expected.
When compiling a student's individual curriculum for the next academic year, it includes, first of all, the subjects that have academic debts from the previous year. If the subject (s) in which the academic debt arises are not taught in the relevant semester or a group is not established for that subject (s), appropriate changes are made in the individual plans.

In the next academic year, students prepare their individual curriculum and submit it to the faculty from July 5 to 15, waiting for the requirements of the existing Rules.
The student can make adjustments to the individual curriculum until September 10. Individual curricula are approved before the beginning of the academic year and one copy is kept by the student and one copy by the Registration Office.
Subsequent changes to the student's individual curriculum are not permitted. Only those who have academic debts from the fall semester can make appropriate adjustments in the first week of the winter break in the individual curriculum for the next semester.
If a student does not submit his / her individual curriculum at the appointed time for the next academic year, his / her education is organized in accordance with the schedule of the specialty for that year.
If a certain number of students are not gathered in the subject that the student wants to study, the subject is not opened and the students are informed about it. Students enrolled in the subject make appropriate changes to their individual curricula.
Students who do not participate in more than 20 percent of the classroom hours allocated to the subject will not be allowed to take the exam in that subject.
During the summer semester, students will be able to earn academic credits, receive credits for elective subjects included in the humanities department and be determined by the University, increase the price of the successful subject, and obtain appropriate loans for students of other higher education institutions.
