| ARCH534 | THEORY OF TECTONICS | PROF. DR. YONCA HÜROL | ARCHITECTURE | The aim of the course is to cover the theory of tectonics in architecture. The problem of technology will be described through evolution of the concepts of techne, science (episteme), technique and technology; Martin Heidegger's approach to problem of technology and science (concepts of framing and standing reserve) and other descriptions of instrumental approach to technology. The theories of tectonics will be covered through Alberti (linaments), Palladio (proportions), Karl Botticher (kernform, kunstform), Gottfried Semper (streotomics and tectonics), Eduard Sekler (atektonik), Kenneth Frampton (ontology of construction), Juhanni Pallasmaa (hapticity) and Gevork Hartoonian's (towards a secular tectonics) theories. Metaphysical meanings of tectonics will be studied through Martin Heidegger's and Gaston Bachelard's philosophies. This will be done with the help of Semper's drawing of the Carribean hut. These concepts will also be applied to the tectonics of contemporary architecture by starting with Carlo Scarpa, Adolf Loos, Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Kahn. The students will also be asked to choose a more recent example of architecture to discuss in the class. |

| COMM502 | SELECTED READINGS IN MASS COMMUNICATION STUDIES | YRD. DOÇ. DR. BARUCK OPIYO | 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.

| 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.

| COMM601 | THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS FOR COMMUNICATION PARADIGMS | PROF. DR. BAHİRE EFE ÖZAD | 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 | PROF. DR. BAHİRE EFE ÖZAD | 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.

| ILET502 | SELECTED READINGS IN MASS COMMUNICATION STUDIES | PROF. DR. METİN ERSOY | 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. |
| ILET504 | COMMUNICATION RESEARCH METHOD | | 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. |
| ILET524 | SEMIOTICS | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | Human cultures are understood as consisting of meanings built by signs and symbols, involved by myths, rituals, language, science, and all other cultural phenomena. How these meanings are searched and made comes under the branch of semiotics. Semiotics - the science of the signs - searches how the signs of a culture represent the world. The ability to understand or to decode signs and symbols makes it possible to get an access to the culture of a specific people, and provides one with the necessary information needed for several branches in communication, e.g. media and advertising. The course emphasizes on analyzing and understanding everyday objects and their presentation in advertising. Equipped with the necessary topic related terminology, and actual reading materials the student will learn how to read advertising elements such as photos, pictures, graphics, and web page layouts. Furthermore the student will be able to give attention to the design of culture specific advertising material. |
| ILET532 | UNDERSTANDING MEDIA | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | Graduate students in communication and media studies need to have academic skills necessary for critical readings of various cultural (including the print/visual media) texts. Introducing theoretical background for approaching/analyzing the hegemonic and counter-hegemonic texts, this course aims to provide the ability to see the `things` differently in the field of Communication Studies. The course will provide an overview of the different approaches to textual analysis with particular emphasis on post-structuralist approaches that take all the cultural texts/practices as discursive, to be read like other texts. First part of the course will base on recent post-structuralist and post-modern theorists' and philosophers' works such as Michel Foucault, Chantal Mouffe and Ernesto Laclau, Jacques Derrida that contributed to the discourse theories. Second part of the course will cover the evaluation of the researches/works that were done by the scholars who are in the field of Cultural Studies. Giving this course during the Fall term, the students will be prepared to the “Seminar in Discourse Analysis" (JRN 525) that will be opened in the following Spring term as an elective course for the ones who want to apply critical discourse analysis to the cultural texts. |

|
| ILET584 | THE POWER OF PERSUATION: RHETORIC IN ADVERTISING | | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This course provides the student with grounding in both classical rhetoric and its critical use in the study of advertising copywriting. It is the contention of this course that advertising can be profitably viewed as, fundamentally, an application of rhetorical principles to the building of persuasive selling messages. The course emphasizes the foundation status of Aristotle's The Art of Rhetoric but will also look at extracts from rhetorical works by Plato, Isocrates and Ramus. It will be seen that ancient concerns regarding the ethics of rhetoric closely mirror current concerns regarding the ethics of advertising. Students will be introduced to the 'figures of speech' (the tropes and schemes of rhetoric) and will be asked to both analyze contemporary advertising with respect to the figures and also produce copy of their own using them. The work of Edward McQuarrie will be closely examined in terms of its ramifications for contemporary changes in advertising methodology. Finally, issues surrounding current debates concerning the rhetoric of rhetoric will be applied to the advertising industries own attempts at self-justification, self-appraisal and self-regulation. |
| ILET598 | 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. |

| INAR501 | INTERDISCIPLINAY 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.
