Each student selects one or two courses from Marmara University's offerings in English in the departments of Economics, International Relations. Each of these programs offers a large number of standard elective courses that are recognized by Beloit College departments of Economics and International Relations. Additionally, the students are offered a course in beginning Turkish language and a seminar in Ottoman and modern Turkish history, culture, politics, economics, and arts. Occasionally, another course, such as one on Islam, has been arranged by the director depending on the number of students on the program and their academic plans. Students interested in Middle Eastern arts, religion, archaeology, classical antiquity, or Middle Eastern affairs will find Istanbul and Turkey to be a living text.
All instruction is in English.
Non-departmental credit will satisfy the interdisciplinary component of the International Relations major at Beloit, pending advisor approval.
