| COMM501 | MASS COMMUNICATION AND SOCIETY | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This course provdes students w'th useful analytical tools for conceptualizing the broad contexts within which the mass media are situated. In this course we will explore these questions. What does the media do? Repeat the truth? Make up the truth? Entertain in order to be more profitable? What are the unseen forces that determine what we view and read? How does media content affect the nature of society? Some selected topics are role of the audience, effects controversy, ratings , visual images which dominate our society, news, public opinion. |
| COMM502 | SELECTED READINGS IN MASS COMMUNICATION STUDIES | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | A graduate level introduction to communication and media studies through a review of major historical and contemporary trends in communication research and literature. The course begins with an overview of the early work produced by North American and European scholars and social theorists around communication and culture, proceeds through the historical debates of the 1970s around the possibility of a “field" of communication and considers the more contemporary and still emerging approaches to understanding communication as a social practice while providing the theoretical background and analytic skills needed to navigate the tensions among these varying approaches. We will consider questions concerning the multiple ways in which communication issues can be addressed from different points of view, and explores how these different points of view support different knowledge claims. |
| COMM504 | COMMUNICATION STUDIES RESEARCH METHODS | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This course aims to introduce the students to the epistemology, ontology and methodology of standard and alternative research in communication studies. It provides not only the theoretical background but also practical skills of carrying out research in communication. The students taking this course are expected to contrast research with reasoned inquiry and common sense; to identify problems which will justify communication research; to formulate researchable research techniques; to select appropriate research techniques; to write a succinct, detailed and persuasive research proposal, to present it orally and defend it against criticism; to explore quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and produce research reports in both of them. |
| COMM512 | MEDIA EFFECTS | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This course surveys major theories about the effects of mass media, focusing on those theories that have empirical support. The course covers readings on topics such as how media affect what and how people think, how people underestimate the effect of media on themselves, and why we like what we like on media. The course also explores violence on television, the effects of interactive media, and physiological effects of media. Other topics include cognitive effects, affective effects and behavioral effects. |
| COMM523 | POLITICAL ECONOMY OF COMMUNICATION | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | Political economy of commmunication draws on historical and contemporary theories of political economy in order to explore a variety of issues emantaing from information and communication societies. This course provides students with an historical framework within which to consider issues related to ownership and control of media industries. İt also provides a framework for sonsidering atterns of ownership and control within the globalisation process, policy making, the role of the nation state, production, distribution and exibition of cultural commdities, the public sphere, and issues related to democracy and communication technologies and industries. The course draws an international body of research within the field of political economy of communication. |
| COMM536 | THEORIES OF THE MOVING IMAGE | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | During the course of the semester students will observe, through a combination of lectures, readings and practical application, equate themselves with the major theoretical approaches used in the study of film as an academic discipline within the field of communication studies. A solid grounding in the theoretical approaches taken in the study of film is essential before going on to more advanced and specialist courses. Students will become acquainted with historical criticism, genre criticism, feminist criticism, structuralist semiotics, psychoanalytic semiotics and narratology. |
| COMM543 | SELF-OTHER RELATIONSHIP | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | It is necessary for potential media professionals to have a gender perspective with the understanding of “globalizing social life" and "world in change." The intention of this MA seminar is to provide an introduction to contemporary gender issues in the social sciences and humanities; in disciplines such as sociology, anthropology, cultural studies and post-colonial studies. In addition to this, special attention will be given to various perspectives in gender analysis, such as, for instance, the first, second, and third waves of feminism, and their subsequent effects on the social sciences and humanities. The concept of gender and its influence upon contemporary academic disciplines will be the primary focus of this seminar. Participants will be given a variety of interesting readings covering a broad range of perspectives. Some of the concepts that will be investigated include; patriarchy, sex and gender, gender mainstreaming, public and private dichotomy. Those students who wish to join this seminar will be required to complete the essential readings list in the seminar outline, read a book related to one of the specific areas that we will cover, and write a critique or analysis of it (handing in various drafts and a final copy as directed). |
| COMM553 | GENDER AND THE MEDIA | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This course will examine how definitions of gender and sexuality are reproduced, negotiated and deployed in a media context. The goal of this course is to introduce students to the ways in which a variety of media represent gender. The course examines the theoretical approaches that are central to the study of media, culture and gender. This course highlights the key features of many of the current theories and approaches in media analysis, it also focuses on the ways that media can shape public discourse about gender and sexism. This course surveys methods of analysis such as semiotics, socio-historical analysis, ideological analysis, discourse analysis, feminist method, and ethnography as tools through which to understanding gender in media. Reading material will include works by Margaret Gallager, Liesbet van Zoonen, Tania Modleski, David Morley, David Connell, and Rosalind Gill among many others. |
| COMM578 | APPLIED DRAMA AS RESEARCH METHODOLOGY | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | The aim of this course is to develop critical analytical skills and the capacity to evaluate mediated information.

They will also have grasped the basic arguments originating in theories of peace journalism and conflict resolution and the media. |
| COMM598 | SEMINAR | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | Many graduate students under-perform in their course work, exams, and eventually their theses due to poorly developed basic study skills. Taking essay writing as its basic activity, this course demonstrates how the integration of study, planning, time Management, rhetorical and language skills is an essential prerequisite of good results. The course will be run on a “workshop" basis – much of the actual exercises we will be doing will occur during class time. Come expecting to participate in discussions and practical work. There will also be occasional homework assignments. All of this work is important as it will form the basis of students' coursework Mark. In the final essay students will be expected to demonstrate all the skills they have acquired during the course – preparing outlines, drafts, coherent argument, etc. |

| COMM601 | THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS FOR COMMUNICATION PARADIGMS | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | In this course, we will discuss behavioral (mainstream) and critical approaches to communication theory. The major aim of the course is to familiarize students with alternative theoretical approaches to understand communication. Each week, a different communication theory will be introduced. |
| COMM602 | CURRENT ISSUES IN COMMUNICATION STUDIES | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This course introduces major and emerging approaches to understanding communication as both an academic discipline and a social practice while providing the theoretical background and analytic skills needed to navigate the tensions among these varying approaches. The course reviews the intellectual history of communication studies, engages traditional and contemporary questions about human communication, raises questions concerning the multiple ways in which communication issues can be addressed from different points of view, and explores how these different points of view support the legitimation of different knowledge claims. |
| COMM603 | ALTERNATIVE METHODS FOR COMMUNICATION RESEARCH | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This class will focus on alternative research methods and the methodological reasons that lead us to consider them as alternatives to the mainstream tradition. We will look at the distinction made between the “sciences" and the “humanities as well as the remapping of that distinction within the sciences in terms of the natural or physical sciences versus the social sciences differentiation. It is this notion of a difference-in-kind that also underlies the disparity and incommensurability of qualitative and quantitative methodologies. The ontological underpinnings of these distinctions will force us to reconsider, for example, the conventional understandings of, and the requirement for, an “objective" knowledge. Informed by a positivist or empiricist methodology, PhD students are sometimes asked to write their dissertation in the passive voice in order to create and maintain this impression of objectivity. It is their style of writing that enables this impression of objectivity, otherwise the claim to objectivity is endangered. Noting this opens up another line of research for us; that of the literary style and the rhetoric involved in the representations of truth and reality in scientific research, and scientific discourse in general. This, in turn, points to a, perhaps, surprising but nonetheless necessary relationship between fact and fiction. Etymology shows that relation in the words themselves, for fact is the past participle of fiction (see Gayatri Spivak).
To get a better understanding of the difference-within scientific research, we will study the methodological underpinnings of the alternative methods. To put it differently we will study the logos. We will see that different methods often rest on incompatible epistemological or ontological assumptions.
At the same time, we will not limit our understanding of “alternative" to “qualitative" method as the binary opposite of quantitative method. Instead, we will deconstruct and displace the binary opposition “quantitative versus qualitative." We will note how they depend on and reference each other. We will also note how they both depend on what I have called empiricism in more general terms, and what Jacques Derrida has called a metaphysics of presence.

| INAR501 | INTERDISCIPLINARY WORKSHOP | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | Interdisciplinary Workshop is a compulsory course offered to all graduate students at an interdisciplinary level. 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. |
