HISTORY EDUCATION

The period of study in our department was rearranged in 1998 as 3,5+1,5 years in accordance with the reorganization of Education Faculties in Turkey. In its meeting on 11.07.2007, the Turkish Higher Education Council had re-evaluated the undergraduate programs for training secondary schools teachers in the faculty of education and decided to cancel the existing system in which the undergraduate program was combined with non-thesis graduate course (3,5+1,5 years). Instead, they introduced a new undergraduate program in which the pedagogical formation would be given to the secondary schools teachers throughout 5 years.

Our department started to admit undergraduate students again since the academic year of 2008-2009 onwards. However, Turkish Higher Education Council did not provide our department with student quota for the years of 2013 and 2015. Our department offers undergraduate and master programs.

The aim of our department is to train history teachers for public and private high schools. Our graduates can work in archives, museums and library as specialist and researcher. Our academic staff and students can teach and study at foreign universities that have agreement with our university in accordance with the Erasmus Programme. At the moment, 2 Associate Professor is working at out deparment.

WRITING HISTORY IS AS MUCH IMPORTANT AS MAKING HISTORY. IF THE WRITER WERE NOT TRUE TO MAKER, THE UNCHANGED TRUTH WOULD GAIN A NATURE THAT SURPRISES HUMANITY.
