In Fall 2012, FASS offers two new honors minor programs, which will considerably enrich the scope of studies available to our BA students.
Philosopy honors minor program equips the students with a strong background in Philosophy and develops their critical thinking skills. Students are introduced to the history of philosophy and contemporary philosophical issues, and equipped with the skills of interpretation and critical reasoning requisite for understanding and arguing about these issues.
Psychology honors minor program builds a strong base in Psychology, develops a scientific understanding in a wide range of its subfields and introduces the students to the contemporary issues and research questions that are relevant to a variety of disciplines.
FASS has launched its new diploma program B.A. in International Studies with a simulation of the Cyprus negotiations by our students, in Taksim Marmara Hotel, February 25th. Minister of Foreign Affairs Ahmet Davutoğlu and the president of the UN General Assembly Abdulaziz El-Nasser honored us with speeches and comments before and after the event.
A group of three student teams from European Studies (MA), SPS (BA), Political Science (MA, PhD) and Conflict Analysis and Resolution (MA), representing the UN, Turkish and Greek Cypriots, was very successfully prepared by faculty members Teri Murphy and Emre Hatipoğlu. It was an event to remember—for all of us, but most of all, for the participating students who were applauded by Davutoğlu, Al-Nasser, Nihat Berker and an international group of distinguished academics.
