During the meeting, while new members were informed about the functioning of the senate, a decision was made to implement the student senate's web page. Additionally, topics such as the application of micro-credential programs at the postgraduate level and the election of the vice president were discussed.
Rector Prof. Dr. Hüseyin Dalgar, who attended the meeting, emphasized the importance they attach to the student senate. Dalgar said, “Our purpose here is to fulfill an important duty entrusted to us by the state in the best way possible. You are the young people who will shape the future of this country. Our goal is to contribute to your development as more conscious, competent, and self-expressive individuals.”
Highlighting the importance of listening to students' expectations, Dalgar said, “Since the student is at the center of the process, our fundamental question should be: What does the student say, what do they expect? What kind of educational ecosystem, support, and service do you want from us? This feedback is extremely valuable to us. Your opinions will guide us in recognizing new problem areas and developing solutions.”
Dalgar stated that the perspective of young people is of great importance in guiding university administration, saying, “We will continue to meet with you at regular intervals and maintain this interaction. Because our job is to provide valuable service to the student.”
The student presiding over the senate, Merve Öztürer, in her speech, drew attention to the value of the environment provided by the student senate. Öztürer said, “Since we started our work last term, being part of such a valuable structure is a great opportunity for me. Our university truly values its students. This is a very important opportunity for us. I thank everyone who provided us with this opportunity.”
In the continuation of the meeting, Öztürer shared the decisions made in the senate with the participants.
The meeting was attended by Rector Prof. Dr. Hüseyin Dalgar, Vice Rector Prof. Dr. Oğuz Gürsoy, Rector's Advisor Prof. Dr. Ali Murat Alparslan, Deputy Secretary General Mesut Türkmen, Head of Student Affairs Department Hüseyin Kahraman, and student senate members.
