Özet: Basic features of Turkish higher education system in terms of quantitative indicators are vital for the human resources needed by economic sectors. The type and number of education program and the numbers of students and teaching staff are primary quantitative indicators. In addition, it is critical to make an x-ray of the higher education system in terms of quantitative and qualitative human resource projection based on economic sectors in the five-year development plans. In this study, Turkish higher education system is handled based on quantitative data within the framework of international standard classification of education (ISCED). Thus, it will be ensured that Turkish higher education system will enable international comparisons in terms of its basic features. Consequently, human resource planning based on the links between education classification (ISCED), occupational classification (ISCO) and economic activity classification (ISIC) would be useful both in terms of national policies and international reporting and comparisons; and starting point is classification of education in the higher education system.
