Your participation and support are expected in the ACADEMIC PEER SUPPORT program, which will be organized for the 8th time this term, in line with the information provided below.

ACADEMIC PEER SUPPORT PROGRAM

This is a program for our undergraduate students. The main purpose of the program is to support students' academic success with the help they receive from their peers. In this context, students who need academic support are provided support through peer guides within the scope of the course and subject they need. Peer guides who have previously taken and successfully completed the relevant course provide support to other students on topics such as explanation of the courses in the program, problem solving, as well as preparation for exams and time management after the training they receive. With the Academic Peer Support Program, which basically provides peers with academic knowledge and experience sharing, in addition to the academic success of the students receiving support, the academic and social development of the students providing support (peer guides) is also supported.

In this context, we kindly ask you to send the information about the course/courses deemed appropriate to be included in the "Academic Peer Support" Program, the names and contact information (e-mail and phone number) of the students who have previously taken this course and passed with an "A" grade and who want to contribute to the program as a Peer Guide to the secretariat by the end of business hours on 27/02/2025.
