Özet: Translation & interpreting departments, which continue to function in Turkey for over 35 years, play a significant role in meeting the need for qualified translators & interpreters. The evaluation of both the teaching programs and the academic activities of translation & interpreting departments has a positive effect on increasing the quality of these departments. In this regard, the issue of program evaluation will be examined specifically for translation & interpreting departments in the present study. FEDEK, which carries out the program evaluation and accreditation process of the departments in Science & Arts faculties as an independent institution, constitutes the sample of the research. In this regard, the parameters set by FEDEK for translation and interpreting departments as program evaluation criteria will be examined in the light of the translation studies discipline. In the present study in which document analysis method and comparative analysis method were administrated as research methods, program-specific criteria in FEDEK’s program evaluation criteria will be compared and contrasted with the translation competence model of PACTE group, and the study concludes with pedagogical advice focusing on both program evaluation and translator education.
