Graduation Project Adviser/Mentor, Marxist Concept of State, Meriç Bekar, 4/9/2025 12:00:00 AM - 6/9/2025 12:00:00 AM
In the Marxist theory of state, power and hegemony relations, legitimacy hospital and the class and spatial interventions of the hegemonic practices of the government and these interventions is to discuss possible counter hegemonic accelerations in developments. These well-formed, ruling classes, organized the hegemonic domination created through political components is characterized by commodification and is to attempt to make relational inferences about manifestations of dispossession. The written work of Marx cannot be reduced to a philosophy, much less to a philosophical system. The whole of his work is a radical critique of philosophy, especially of Hegel’s idealist system and of the philosophies of the left and right post-Hegelians. It is not, however, a mere denial of those philosophies. Marx declared that philosophy must become reality. One could no longer be content with interpreting the world; one must be concerned with transforming it, which meant transforming both the world itself and human consciousness of it. This, in turn, required a critique of experience together with a critique of ideas. In fact, Marx believed that all knowledge involves a critique of ideas. He was not an empiricist. Rather, his work teems with concepts that he had inherited from earlier philosophers and economists, including Hegel, Johann Fichte, Immanuel Kant, Adam Smith, David Ricardo, and John Stuart Mill. What uniquely characterizes the thought of Marx is that, instead of making abstract affirmations about a whole group of problems such as human nature, knowledge, and matter, he examines each problem in its dynamic relation to the others and, above all, tries to relate them to historical, social, political, and economic realities.

MA Adviser/Mentor, "The Relation of Conservatism to the Basic Concepts of Postmodernism", Talha Özyürek, 6/4/2025 12:00:00 AM - 6/4/2025 12:00:00 AM
Political ideologies have their own value system, worldview, and way of perceiving reality. This determines how they relate to it, what goals they set for themselves. This master's thesis is concerned with the way conservatism views and conceptualizes postmodernism. In doing so, special attention will be paid to the conservative understanding of the postmodern family, lifestyle, and nation-state.

MA Adviser/Mentor, Utilization of psychotherapy services among psychology students, Epirot Ferati, 3/3/2025 12:00:00 AM - 3/3/2025 12:00:00 AM
Psychotherapy services are an important resource for students, particularly those studying psychology, to address mental health concerns and develop coping strategies. However, research suggests that psychology students may underutilize these services due to various barriers. This master thesis examines the current state of psychotherapy service utilization among psychology students, the factors that influence their help-seeking behavior, and potential strategies to improve access and engagement.

MA Adviser/Mentor, The mechanisms behind citizens' smoking behavior, Simay Kocak , 3/5/2025 12:00:00 AM - 3/5/2025 12:00:00 AM
Tobacco smoking remains a very prominent 21st-century public health issue and a prime source of the global disease burden. Over eight million deaths annually, including secondhand smoke-exposure-related deaths, are solely responsible for their cause by smoking, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). In spite of the well-appreciated biological effects of nicotine dependence, biomedical literature, more and more focus is placed on the psychological mechanisms behind smoking behavior initiation and maintenance. This master's thesis will deal with the various mechanisms behind the smoking behavior of citizens.
