Internationalization and Sinop University
Creators
Description
Abstract:
Sinop, the pearl of the Black Sea, is located in the northernmost part of Turkey. Sinop University was established in 2007. The university currently has nine faculties, one institute, three colleges, seven vocational schools and thirteen research centers. In theory, internationalization of higher education is the process of integrating an international, intercultural or global dimension into the purpose, functions or delivery of post-secondary education. The University has been an active user and beneficiary of the Erasmus program since its establishment. In this study, Erasmus studies of Sinop University in the internationalization process are examined. The opinions of eleven coordinators of the European universities with which the university has agreements have been taken on the subject. Sinop University is an effective university in terms of its location and the opportunities it offers to its students and employees. Erasmus mobility has an important place in the internationalization of a university. However, in the light of expert opinions, the number of courses offered in foreign languages, especially in English, the number of foreign lecturers and the level of foreign language, especially English, of students and staff benefiting from Erasmus have an important place in the internationalization of Sinop University. The document analysis revealed that very few European students and university staff come to Sinop University as visitors. The university can take action with non-governmental organizations abroad and include mobility from Europe to Sinop in the mobility from Sinop to Europe. Foreign language qualified students and staff will be able to represent the university more competently. Foreign language courses at the university can be an attractive element for European students. Future studies may focus on scientific, technological and cultural cooperation between the university and foreign universities.
Keywords: Sinop University, Internationalization, Erasmus Mobility
Abstract (Turkish)
Öz:
Karadeniz’in incisi Sinop şehri Türkiye’nin en kuzeyinde yer almaktadır. Sinop Üniversitesi 2007 yılında kurulmuştur. Üniversitede halen dokuz fakülte, bir enstitü, üç yüksekokul, yedi meslek yüksekokulu ve on üç araştırma merkezi bulunmaktadır. Teoride yüksek öğretimin uluslararasılaşması orta öğretim sonrası eğitimin amacına, işlevlerine veya sunumuna uluslararası, kültürlerarası veya küresel bir boyutu entegre etme sürecidir. Üniversite kurulduğu yıldan itibaren Erasmus programının aktif kullanıcısı ve yararlanıcısı olmuştur. Bu çalışmada Sinop Üniversitesinin uluslararasılaşma sürecinde Erasmus çalışmaları incelenmiştir. Üniversitenin anlaşmalı olduğu Avrupa üniversitelerinin on bir koordinatörünün konu hakkına görüşleri alınmıştır. Sinop Üniversitesi gerek konumu gerekse öğrenci ve çalışanlarına sunduğu imkanlar açısından etkili bir üniversitedir. Erasmus hareketliliği bir üniversitenin uluslararasılaşmasında önemli bir yer taşımaktadır. Ancak uzman görüşleri ışığında Sinop Üniversitesinin uluslarasılaşmasında yabancı dilde özellikle İngilizce açılan ders sayısı, yabancı öğretim elemanı sayısı ve Ersmustan yararlanan öğrenci ve personelin yabancı dil özellikle İngilizce seviyeleri önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Yapılan doküman incelemelerinde çok az sayıda Avrupalı öğrenci ve üniversite personelinin Sinop Üniversitesine ziyaretçi olarak geldiği anlaşılmıştır. Üniversite yurt dışındaki sivil toplum kuruluşlarıyla harekete geçerek Sinop’tan Avrupa’ya olan hareketliliğe Avrupa’dan Sinop’a olan hareketliliği de dahil edebilir. Yabancı dil açısından nitelikli öğrenci ve personel üniversiteyi daha yetkin temsil edebileceklerdir. Üniversite içinde yabancı dille açılacak dersler Avrupalı öğrenciler için cazip bir unsur olabilir. İlerde yapılacak çalışmalar üniversitenin yabancı üniversitelerle yapacağı bilimsel, teknolojik ve kültürel işbirlikleri üzerine olabilir.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Sinop Üniversitesi, Uluslararasılaşma, Erasmus Hareketliliği
