Exploring the innovation and creative processes through interdisciplinary work and research structures. Understanding design problems independent from their disciplinary boundaries. Gaining an integrative understanding of innovation based on human-centered design.

To develop ability to express the significance of different literary forms as a reflection of sensory experience. Questions how different genres of literature portray the world as shaped by sense perceptions and how these perceptions might become ideological tools through discussions of gender, race or class. Asks the role of sensory skills in the way life is experienced. Raises up ethical issues concerning people with sensory loss asking students to relate their own experiences to situations presented in texts. Develops awareness of the immediate world around students through creative writing tasks like reporting the sounds or smells of a street. Includes 20th century literary works in English and Turkish with support from other disciplines such as philosophy, psychology, cultural studies and visual arts.

Explores artistic engagements with urban spaces and experiences through film. These films will serve as frameworks to discuss crucial and timeless questions of urban relevance, from migration and borderlands, fear and alienation, race and gender, spatial politics, nostalgia and memory.

The aim of this course is to teach the basic principles of cellular and molecular immunology in details. The course is the advanced version of Cellular and Molecular Immunology-I (CAMM 604) and will cover the specialized immune system mechanisms such as allergy and tumor immunology.

This course is designed to give an introduction to the key concepts of molecular biology and its applications commonly used in research laboratories. The emphasis will be on the analysis of DNA and RNA structure, DNA replication, biochemistry of transcription and translation. Basic methods of molecular biology such as DNA and RNA isolation, gel electrophoresis, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), DNA sequencing, Southern (DNA) blotting, Northern (RNA) blotting and Western blotting will be discussed. The basic principles of flow cytometry and its use will also be covered during this course.

This course is non-credit and aims to increase the scientific interaction between students and improve their presentation skills with the participation of students from all interdisciplinary programs. The Seminar course which is consisting of presentation of the studies and researches in front of the community within the framework of the techniques determined with the guidance of the advisor, and question and answer part are graded each semester.
