About Programme
|
Hacettepe University Faculty of Law undergraduate program is similar to law faculties in Turkey in terms of compulsory courses. There is only a difference in the number and types of elective courses. In accordance with its purpose, the program also has a content that emphasizes basic social sciences such as philosophy, sociology and anthropology in order to prevent students from growing up as memorizers of laws and to ensure that they grow up as intellectuals who produce, think, wonder and question the law. In this context, compulsory courses were kept to a minimum, and elective courses consisting of a wide range and renewed in line with current developments were emphasized.
The language of instruction of the program is Turkish. In addition, optionally, our students will be able to learn various foreign legal languages ??and systems, as well as have detailed information about how these legal systems work, and English-American, French and German legal systems will be transferred to students in their own foreign language. With the student exchange programs, it will be possible to examine the legal systems in question.

The main difference can be observable on the issue of variability of elective courses. The programme intends to bring an education involving the students as the curious, thoughtful and effective actors of future lawmaking, not just some memorizors of codes.Thats why, it`s curriculum tends to emphasize other social sciences as philosophy, sociology, antrophology. In order to achive that goal, compulsory courses are set at minimum and much weight was put on broad range elective courses which were evolved from current developments.The medium of the programme is Turkish. Upon their will, our students will have the opportunity of learning basic information about the foreign law systems alongside with relevant foreign languages. We intend to provide our students the ways of getting first hand experiences with those systems via the channel of student exchange programs.
