Since architecture stands at the intersection point of different study areas, the interdisciplinary character of the professional studies have to be employed. Thus, the aim of this compulsory course is to guide the students to carry out certain researches around their different interest areas while the theme remaining constant within one semester.
The sub-research groups are selected according to the various sub-topics of different architectural themes such as design in all scales; theory; history; conservation-restoration; economy; technology, environmental control; construction and materials; management etc.. These research options are kept large in order to give students more freedom in selecting the topic of their contribution to the workshop. Different workshop methods are applied in achieving a mutual end product, taking inputs from different disciplines and viewing the theme from different perspectives.
The role of the instructor(s) is to coordinate the workshop process and to act as a mediator. Guest lecturers and experts are invited to support the fundamentals of the concerned sub-themes / areas.
Depending on the number and research areas of the attended students, they are required to work either in a single group or as sub-groups forming the whole. A variety of research methods are experienced by the students; as literature survey; analysis techniques covering observation; photographing; sketching, etc.; workshops towards problem solving; group discussions led by instructors; synthesizing the collected data of the research; presentations (verbal, graphics and posters), etc. |

| LAW 575 | TRNC CHEQUE LAW | ASST. PROF. DR.HAKAN BİLGEÇ | LAW | Cheque is a common payment instrument in Turkish Rebuplic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC). In order to ensure the quality of this instrument, the issued bill must have the legal conditions of the cheque.TRNC Law is mainly under the influence of Anglo-Saxon law. Due to this feature, judicial decisions are important as well as codes. Bills of Exchange Law is the main code of TRNC cheque law. Bills of Exchange Law has been incorporated into the Cypriot legal system by the translation of the British Bills of Exchange Act, dated 1882. Nowadays, the Third Part of the Law, about cheques is in a mixed form. The form and interpretation of cheque are still under the influence of Bills of Exchange Act. Despite that, sanction of dishonoured cheque is in harmony with Turkish Law.Dishonoured cheque and sanctions of dishonoured cheque is one of the major problem in legal systems. Thus, dishonoured cheque and sanction of dishonoured cheque part is the most changed part of Bills of Exchange Law. The only sanction about dishonoured cheque in TRNC law is prohibition of opening and using cheque account. The Central Bank of TRNC has important missions about implementation of this prohibition. Prohibition of opening and using cheque account is abolished when the all cheque amount is paid. Because of this, the prohibition is not an affective sanction. Numbers of prohibited people don't decrease in the last years, also verifies that.In this course, which is offered for the LL.M. in law, related legislation will be examined with comparative method and judicial decisions.The aim of the course is, especially for practitioners (judge, public prosecutor, attorney etc.) studying LL.M. in law, examine the issue in all angles.
