While the course titled "Democracy and Social Movements" on the one hand reflects its projection on important social movements such as the "Anti-War Movement" and "Civil Rights Movement of Black in the U.S." that left traces on a global scale in the period between 1967-1975, it also plans to scrutinize the social movements like the environmental movement, the feminist movement, and national/global movement that emerged as a reaction to increasing inequalities on a scale and symbolized by the slogan "another world is possible". The common point of all these movements is that their participants/actors act not only with their own existential anxieties but also with their concern for the world in which they were born. In this context, the "Democracy and Social Movements" course aims to think on a globaş scale based on local experiences, and to think about the common aspects as well as the differences of social movements that emerged in different times and places. In the course, an interactive discussion between the lecturer and students will be held after the screening of relevant documentaries/films about each of the social movements.

But, it is also important to take into account the position of law in a wider context and with a special comparative emphasis on methods which are used by the social sciences and the natural sciences. The major topics in this course for students who are at the initial stage of their legal education are analysis of the larger framework of law and its effect on social life in general and in the relations of daily life.

The basic question of Philosophy of Law is ontological: “What is law?”. In this course, methods of acquiring knowledge on law and the relationship of law with other universes of thought and praxis are evaluated. Problems of existence (the formation and adoption of normative order) and language (indeterminacy–determinacy of law): the elements of law as a system (norms and principles) and its relations (the relationships of normative systems with each other) and, finally, the problem of value (natural law within the context of justice and freedom) are concentrated on and discussed. These discussions are evaluated in their contexts in the history of thought, with chronological leaps and special focus on contemporary thought.

The aim of this course is to explore substantive International Human Rights Law as well as international human rights monitoring mechanisms. In this regard, the main focus of the course will be the European Convention on Human Rights, as well as the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights.

Brand management is the application of marketing techniques to a specific product, product line, or brand. It seeks to increase the product's perceived value to the customer and thereby increase brand franchise and brand equity. Marketers see a brand as an implied promise that the level of quality people have come to expect from a brand will continue with present and future purchases of the same product. This may increase sales by making a comparison with competing products more favorable. It may also enable the manufacturer to charge more for the product. The value of the brand is determined by the amount of profit it generates for the manufacturer. This results from a combination of increased sales and increased price. Today, the entire marketing issue is based on managing brands successfully. This course will concentrate on issues such as different branding strategies, brand rationalization, brand identity system, brand personality, identity implementation, brand strategies over time, managing brand systems, leveraging the brands, measuring brand equity and organizing for brand building. The lectures will be supported by intensive case analysis.

This course aims to help students understand the world through abstraction and conceptualization of their surroundings: shapes, forms, figures, colors, textures, materials, scales, space(s) and the like, and to use this understanding to produce organizations: designs as compilations, compositions, arrangements and re-arrangements. A series of assignments are intended to develop the skills of students in simultaneous efforts of analysis (reading/decoding) and development (writing/encoding) of relationships. While requirements and restrictions help them concentrate on specific aspects of design thinking, hands-and-minds-on experimentation within the 2-D or 3-D design space expand the possibilities. The product and the process are equally valued in the design studio. The process is a semi-individual one which is supported via critical discussions during the studio sessions. The students develop skills in the communication and evaluation of design ideas while taking the first steps in critical design thinking. The process as well as the product is achieved via logging, sketching, taking notes and photographing.

Basic Design II is the second semester design studio during which students advance the concepts they become familiar with in Basic Design I. The discoveries related to compositions, compilations, arrangements and re-arrangements from the first semester studio are explored with greater concentration on the two basic components of the design process: human and spatial. Weekly and monthly assignments motivate students to explore space(s) as analytically organized sequences, hubs, clusters and containers, while the human component is examined as the perceiver, the contained, the acquiescent and/or the objector of that very space. Students investigate the concepts of form, light and material as space makers. Three-dimensional physical model-making helps students understand the role of surfaces, solids and voids in making spaces. The material properties of the medium used in model making expand the ideas related to connections and detailing in construction. The computational technologies become an inherent part of the studio, supporting if not driving the studies.

The first year summer practice is composed of three stages: The first step comprises training to introduce CAD technologies in order for the students to acquire skills in recent design and manufacturing software/hardware technology. In the second stage, students should attend a workshop/summer school or work for a civil society organization of their choice for at least 10 days. At the end of both stages, students should submit certificates of completion acquired from the corresponding institutions. In the third stage, students should attend an architectural excursion or work in an archaeological excavation of their choice for at least 5 days.

The aim of this course is to teach the student by means of a project of his/her own design that will be produced in the class, the skills to evaluate concepts of space, to think systematically, to express his/her ideas and to evaluate problems from different points of view.

Architectural projects of low to mid-level complexity are studied in this course. In addition to the concepts of body and space, which are dealt with during first semester, the issues of context, physical environment and tectonics are discussed.

The second-year summer practice includes the construction internship. The students will be working at construction sites of their choice for at least 20 workdays to follow up the design-to-construction procedures in order to acquire experience in construction procedures and recent construction management applications.

In this course architectural design is studied as an urban intervention. Students develop a project for a public building in a central complex urban setting through a study of the project brief, particular built environment, urban conditions, as well as relevant precedents.

In the third year studio, architectural design is studied as an urban intervention. While the first semester focuses on a public building project set in a complex central urban context, the second-semester studio tackles with the larger urban fabric. Students carry out extensive analyses in order to develop an understanding of the physical conditions of the site and the urban forces that operate on it. Students then form individual positions based on their observations and the collective analyses of both the site and the various types of urban conditions. The final outcomes of the studio are the collective analyses and individual proposals for an ‘urban fabric’. The students develop a mixed-use program including public facilities. They are expected to enhance “public facilities” component of the given mixed-use architectural program in order to achieve liveliness, urbanity, and conveniently accommodate the spectrum of daily urban activities both in and around their project site.

The third year summer practice is composed of three stages. The first step comprises trainings to introduce technologies (Maya and Vray) in order for the students to acquire skills in recent design software/hardware technology. In the second step, students will be working in an architectural office to experience design development processes, client relations, official works, etc for at least 20 days. Finally, in the third stage students will attend an architectural excursion or work in an archaeological excavation of their own choice for at least 5 days.

The particular objective of the ARCH 401 studio is to understand, evaluate and intervene with a 'valuable' object of architecture in regard to its attributes and its position within the historical and urban context. The studio evolves around the selected entity that constitutes an important element of urban memory and possesses potentials for enabling debates on concepts and acts of: public/private, performance/function, restoration/rehabilitation, conservation/restitution. Students are guided to hold detailed analysis on building, close surrounding and urban context levels, in order to recognize and interpret the building in terms its features and values as well as problems associated with it. These analysis will be the basis for design process, where the students are expected to develop a multi-level adaptive reuse scenario followed with a coherent approach presenting architectural intervention decisions and methods.

On their final semester within their graduate education, this studio aims to make students utilize various information and skills for organizing complex architectural functions in coherence. In doing so, students are asked to develop their proposals based on site analysis, case-studies and studio work, as well as various design exercises addressing the design for specific architectural components such as structural system. materials and light utilization in parallel with the spatial qualities and the functions. Generally instructors propose a variety of design problems composed of a variety of locations, context and scale, resulting with a rich design environment of discussions and approaches to be nourished.
