Dear Stakeholders, Following the work of the Working Subgroup on Program-Specific Criteria for Aquaculture, Fisheries Technology and Similarly Named Engineering Programs, appointed by the ZİDEK Criteria Committee, the following update to the program-specific criteria has been proposed. We kindly request that you send your feedback on the proposed criteria to [email protected] by close of business on Friday, 29 April 2022. Program-Specific Criteria for Aquaculture, Fisheries Technology and Similarly Named Engineering Programs
- These program criteria apply to programs whose names include designations such as “aquaculture” and “fisheries”.
- It must be demonstrated that graduates can solve problems in aquaculture using the knowledge and principles of basic sciences and engineering. Graduates should be able to identify and classify aquatic ecosystems and the organisms living in them, as well as analyze, synthesize information on, and control the biology, dynamics and population structures of aquatic organisms. The program must equip graduates with knowledge and skills in areas such as the harvesting, farming, processing, nutrition, diseases and economics of aquatic organisms in marine and inland waters, and facility design.
