The Administration of METU, School of Foreign Languages, conducted a Curriculum Renewal Project between 2001 and 2003. It was assumed that the many-faceted nature of the METU - SFL Curriculum Renewal Project would enable:
- both DBE and DML to collaborate in their efforts to draw up specific course syllabi and the overall departmental curriculum,
- the SFL to identify its educational policy and define this policy in written form,
- the teachers in DBE and DML to share their expertise and experiences within the framework of the curriculum renewal cycle and thus bring forth innovation.
A "Curriculum Policy Document", to which a link is provided below, was drawn up upon the completion of the project.
