Graduate School | Department of History | Program in New Age History

The Early Modern History Department is located within the Department of History, which was established in 1993. History is a science that deals with the political, economic, cultural and social development of societies starting from the ancient times within the context of space-time relations. It aims to reveal the contributions of societies to world civilization and shed light on today and the future. The aim of the Modern History Department is to place the political, military and cultural history of the Early Modern Ottoman period within the development process of world history in the light of the latest findings obtained from interdisciplinary studies. In this context, it conducts analytical studies on archival documents and first-hand written sources on Early Modern Ottoman history and produces graduate level studies aimed at understanding Ottoman history. Thus, it aims to be a guide by producing solutions to the problems of today and the future, to create national consciousness in future generations and to strengthen the love of homeland and nation.
