Why Philosophical, Social, and Historical Fundamentals of Education at Ibn Haldun University?

The main purpose of the Philosophical, Social and Historical Fundamentals of Education Master's Program is to raise graduates with interpretive, normative and critical perspectives on education by benefiting from different disciplines in social and human sciences. Our Master's Program aims to lay the groundwork for the development of a new educational idea with its interdisciplinary structure by reinterpreting the implementation of the program around the world from the perspective of our own mission, vision and values.

In line with our university's goal of becoming a leading research university in the field of social sciences, the program aims to create a new research ground for the field with  educational experts who can examine the historical, philosophical and social foundations of national and international education systems and evaluate contemporary new educational views. Our aim is for our graduates to contribute to the formation of the educational idea of the society they live in in line with universal values and future trends.

About the Program

With its strong interdisciplinary approach, the Philosophical Social and Historical Fundamentals of Education Master's Program strives to provide graduates who can approach the basic issues of education from a philosophical, social and historical perspective and make new analyses, and conduct scientific studies in this direction.

Target applicants are:

  • Educators who want to examine education in terms of its development in society types and historical stages through various disciplines such as philosophy, philosophy of education, history of education, sociology,
  • Individuals who want to explore educational issues that differ in theory and methodology and individuals who want to examine them in many different dimensions,
  • Graduates who want to pursue an academic career in the field of education.

We can generally describe the operation of the program we offer as follows:

  • The first year is devoted to the completion of the required courses, and the second year is devoted to thesis preparation based on original content.
    • Scientific preparation training will be given to candidates who are not graduates of the school of education and who do not have pedagogical formation.
  • We offer a multilingual and multicultural educational environment with a large portfolio of international students.
