*Part-time
The Ataturk Institute for Modern Turkish History is dedicated to graduate studies in 19th and 20th century Turkish history. In addition, emphasis is given to the interconnected emergence, evolution and current aspects of the modern Republic and neighboring countries in the Balkan, Middle Eastern, East European and Turkic Inner Asia. To this end, the Institute offers Master's and Ph.D programs enabling graduate students from different backgrounds in the social sciences to benefit from interdisciplinary and comparative approaches.
The Institute initiates independent research projects; builds up its own document collections and specialized library and archives; and convenes workshops, conferences and symposia designed to further scholarship in the field. It also organizes informal weekly seminars to encourage the formation of an intellectual milieu at the Institute where invited guests meet with graduate students for lively discussions.
Included among the responsibilities of the Institute at the undergraduate level are required courses on the History of the Turkish Republic for the entire student body at Bogazici University.
MASTER OF ARTS PROGRAM
The Master's program is designed to culminate in a Master of Arts degree subject to the completion of 21 credit-hours of course work, during the first year. The second year is spent undertaking the writing, submission, and successful defense of an M.A. thesis. The course work must include at least 18 credit-hours (6 courses) and an additional course which merely focuses on thesis writing.
Students are likely to be guided by their academic advisor(s) to make
a selection of courses which enables them to be exposed to as many different
members of the faculty as possible. They are also offered the opportunity
to take a limited number of related courses from other departments.
DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY PROGRAM
The Doctorate Program is designed to culminate in a Doctor of Philosophy
degree subject to (a) the completion of 24 or 30 credit-hours of course
work (on top of an M.A. degree or equivalent), normally corresponding
to 8 or 10 (additional) term-courses, and (b) the supervised researching,
writing, submission, and successful defense of a Ph.D. thesis. Like the
Master's requirement, all students who have not taken ATA 501 (for methodology)
