Seminar Description TURKIC HUMANITIES (9.0 credit hours)
The Humanities Institute offers seminars at the graduate level during four-month semesters. The purpose of these full-time seminars is to introduce the student to Turkic creativity in the Humanities.
The student will be guided, throughout this course, in choosing his or her own period, genre, and theme for future concentration; this choice will be direction-forming for the students. Humanities Institute, in offering these classes, will assure a close working relationship between the student and his or her faculty advisor, who will guide the student’s reading and research, and who will work closely with the student in scheduled consultations. At the same time, Turkic Studies Institute will allow the student adequate leeway for self-pacing, presuming in the student the independent personal study habits that are the foundation for graduate work in the Turkic Humanities.
Humanities Institute seminars trace the comparative history of civilizations. Each course traces the historical developments, political structures, economics, social structure, language, customs, folklore, marriage, arts, literature, architecture, science and technology, philosophical ideas, religion, beliefs, and aesthetics of the major Central Asian civilizations of a specific period or region.
Each seminar contains a total of 9 credit hours. It is a combination of three 3-credit-hour courses in the subjects of history, literature, culture. Academic credit-bearing distance education courses require 45 hours of student work for one semester credit hour and therefore TSI certificate of 9 credit hours will require around 405 hours of student work.
The seminars draw on the resources of Humanities Institute study guides to provide students with a unique vantage point and multi-disciplinary analyses listed on our library page. Study Guides
