Turkish Studies

Undergraduate and Gradute Study

Students who wish to concentrate their work on Turkey have a number of degree programs available. These programs include, at the undergraduate level, a major (or minor) in Turkish Studies and  Islamic Studies; or Middle Eastern Studies. For graduate students, the interdisciplinary M.A. and Ph.D programs offered through the Department of Middle Eastern Studies (Islamic Studies, Middle Eastern Studies, Turkish Studies) and in various departments (including  Anthropology, Geography, Government, History, and Sociology) allow students to specialize on Turkey in their course work and research projects.

Foreign Language Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowships that provide tuition and a stipend are available for the study of Turkish through an annual campus wide competition coordinated by the Center. University of Texas graduate students in  Turkish studies have also won major outside fellowships for study and research work in Turkey.
