NETİCE YILDIZ | ARCHITECTURE | This course aims to study the changing manners in the architecture and art of the Eastern countries during the 18th and 19th centuries. Although several Eastern countries, such as Ottoman Turkey, Iran, India, Far-East, all developed their own individual styles based on their theories mainly based on ritual ideas during the medieval times and reached their apex in the 16th and 17th centuries, they tend to change their original characters during the 18th and 19th centuries due to the cultural impacts as a result of increasing diplomatic and commercial interactions with the western countries. The International Exhibitions organized in European countries also had a significant contribution for the development of western style of architecture with the new industrially produced building materials and decoration elements into the Eastern palaces and other buildings. Eastern sovereigns, with a competitive mood, almost followed this trend in their countries by patronizing western architects, artist and designers which resulted with parallel styles of buildings and interior decoration in Turkey, Iran, India and Egypt. This trend is still continued in Eastern countries. Thus the course will enable students to develop research and writing skills based on theoretical and comparative analytical methods about the buildings selected from relevant countries. Within the possibility, a technical trip in Istanbul will be planned during the study. |

| COMM553 | GENDER AND THE MEDIA | ASSOC. PROF. DR. HANİFE ALİEFENDİOĞLU | 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). |
| COMM567 | CRITICAL MEDIA STUDIES: MEDIA REPRESENTATIONS OF NON-HUMAN ANIMAL 'OTHER' | ASSOC. PROF. DR. MASHOED BAILIE | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This is a graduate level course exploring the role of traditional media in representing the ways in which we perceive of and engage with nonhuman animals and, more broadly, our environments. The emphasis is on both the techniques and the role of representation of nonhuman animals in film, television, advertising, music videos and across social media platforms. We draw on a number of traditional and contemporary media studies positions in order to construct theoretical frameworks through which to examine and consider the mediated construction of our relationship to other species. Throughout the semester we will view a selection of documentaries and films that challenge our perceptions of the world, question our taken-for-granted assumptions about our relationship to each other and to non-human animals with whom we co-exist, and raise concerns about the historical and contemporary role that the media have played in normalizing, rationalizing and habituating society to "the way things are". Key questions concern how stories are constructed in order to normalize, for example, nonhuman animals as pets, food, clothing, objects for experimentation, in zoos and circuses or as "wild". How can we approach these stories critically?" By drawing upon the literature emanating from critical media and animal studies and engaging key insights from the broad fields of cultural studies and feminist and post-colonial studies, course participants conduct research and produce papers that offer opportunities for fundamental shifts in the way we engage with the world. |
| COMM601 | THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS FOR COMMUNICATION PARADIGMS | ASSOC. PROF. DR.

MASHOED BAILIE | COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES | This is an entry-level Ph.D. seminar intended to expose students to a wide body of literature dealing with selected theoretical concepts and studies in the field of Communication and Media. The class will involve examination and analysis of research topics of the past and their implications for the present and future studies; overview of communication –related issues that need further investigation; priorities and alternative explanations of various intellectual perspectives of current issues in the field of communication. |
| COMM603 | ALTERNATIVE METHODS FOR COMMUNICATION RESEARCH | ASSOC. PROF. DR. BAHİRE 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.

| COMM698 | SEMINAR PHD | ASSOC. PROF. DR. METİN ERSOY | 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. |

| INAR500 | THESIS | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | |
| 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. |
| INAR505 | ADVANCED RESEARCH METHODS | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | (Based on the subject matter, the main aim of this course is to provide an introduction to the process / methods of research plan formulation and implementation and the appraisal of completed pieces of research. The course also aims to give guidance on developing a research strategy, programme and a project that would be appropriate in the early stages of a dissertation/thesis or grant application. It also aims to provide an introduction to the design of experiments and investigations and analysis of data as would be suitable and necessary for the undertaking of postgraduate study.)
This is a required course intended to foster academic research methods and writing skills that will enable new Master students to participate fully in scholarly life and discourse as professionals. It is designed as a venue for each student to develop a strong dissertation prospectus that includes a clear statement of dissertation topics, research questions, a well-thought-out description of methodology, a consideration of potential primary and secondary sources, and a carefully prepared bibliography. All these aspects of historical analysis are intimately interconnected. It is intended that the writing will focus on the framework of the prospectus. The work produced for this course should be an integral part of the prospectus and, ultimately, of the dissertation.
The course also serves as an introduction to professional activities such as writing and presenting conference papers, preparing grant proposals and curriculum vitae, and writing book reviews. The standards and requirements of all assignments will reflect the goal of communicating one's research and intellectual work to the international scholarly community in high quality English prose. |
| INAR542 | CONTEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES AND MATERIALS | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | In the past, the architectural options were often limited to local materials and traditional methods of working. But over recent decades the globalisation of trade plus global communications and transport logistics networks have changed the situation drastically. For the architects and interior designers, the search for the "perfect" materials has become very important subject. Discovery of the new technologies and transfer of existing material to other contexts are two principles for the research on innovative materials. Each innovative materials has assets and disadvantages. The process of selecting the right interior materials should cover the aspects of health and safety codes, economic criteria, environmental criteria, installation information, industry standards and regulations. The aim of this course is to help the interior designers select the suitable innovative materials and installation techniques in terms of the factors mentioned above. |
| INAR543 | INNOVATIVE APPROACHES IN INTERIOR DESIGN | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | In this course, the developments in technology and materials, which lead to innovations in interior design are handled. The design factors that affect innovative contemporary interior design solutions are examined; the designs are analysed in terms of form, structure and construction methods; and are evaluated through aesthetical, technical, economical and ergonomical characteristics. |
| INAR565 | PHILOSOPHY OF DESIGN | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | This course is thought to be a contribution to the study of Philosophy of Design. In it, a critical overview is taken of the structure and dynamics of design theory. This overview leads to a method to assist with the critical analysis of design theories and their associated concepts. If 'design theory' is considered as an artefact to be designed, this course's role is in the part of the design process often called 'problem analysis'. Supporting what is presented in this course is an assumption that the act of designing by human agents is central to the academic study of design. This theoretical standpoint, that what is described as design, always implicates humans, together with the understanding that any theory, theorising or theory interpretation has meaning only in a human context, is the basis for the analysis of the issues addressed in the course. The course addresses the position of the interior designer in the society and relation of design to the humanities, social sciences, and natural/physical sciences. Interaction with disciplines are emphasized. Introduction to significant theories concerning the interaction of people and interior architectural space. Students survey both substantive and normative theories, philosophies and doctrines of design and explore their influences. With the help of readings, lectures, guest lecturers, and in-class discussion, students are habituate to think in regards to developing methods for philosophical considerations both in the field of design in general and in interior design in particular. This interactive course encourages students to articulate philosophies based upon facts and use them as a central component of generating their own design solutions. |
| INAR566 | INTERIOR SPACE AND FORM | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | Within the context of this course, the internal space, a representative of the image of user's spirit, that wraps our existence, is described and interpreted through functional activity requirements and discussed relationships between the architectural form and internal architectural space. Besides defining the elements of the internal space theoretically, the space and form, bounding space will be analyzed in depth. The relationship between space and form in architecture can be defined at different scales. At this point, space-form affiliation is considered at internal space scale. In addition to the necessities of use, such architectural forms are also objectified models of the ideas about the physical, spiritual and symbolic aspects of life and environment. The space – form evaluation which engages sophisticated parameters in its structure, requires to be perceived and evaluated in a holistic manner. The main target of this course is to interpret and evaluate the space within the context of form in order to strengthen the theories mentioned through design exercises. |
| INAR591 | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE STUDIO I | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | Within the scope of Interior Architecture Studio I, the main aim is to bring the design aptitude of the students further. In the context of the conceptual based projects that are going to be handled through multidisciplinary approaches, subjects like theories and techniques of design, interior spatial organization, process of interior architectural design (research, analysis, synthesis, and creative design), legitimate process, and the phases of interior architectural applications will be addressed. |
| INAR598 | SEMINAR | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | |
| INAR599 | FINAL TERM PROJECT | | INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE | As an aim of the course, it is expected from the students to search the characteristics and application details of the materials intended to be used for their projects and adapt these findings into a new application project, together with preparing a materials file and calculating the probable cost of the project and putting the findings in a report file. This is a follow-up of the Interior Architecture Studio II course. |
