2. Uluslararası Öğrenci Konferansı (2002) (2nd International Students' Conference: Key Concepts "Culture & Texts: Interrelations & Subversions")
Başkent Üniversitesi,
27-29 Mart 2002
Ankara, Türkiye
In light of the framework of the above given title, we aim to enlarge the concept of the two terms "culture" and "text" in an interrelated manner. In our title, the term "text" encompasses all fields of humanities i.e. Performance and Theatre, Film and Media, Poetry (Musical lyrics), Prose and Fiction. On the other hand, the sub-topics of "Interrelations and Subversions" enable the participants to explore culture through not only a single framework but through exploring a vast array of cultural artifacts and their connections to/with each other.

1. Uluslararası Öğrenci Konferansı (2001) (1st International Students' Conference: Key Concepts "Patterns, Perceptions, Perspectives")
Başkent Üniversitesi,
29-30 Mart 2001
Ankara, Türkiye
Our first conference was committed to:
* discussion and participation(open to plurality);
* the exchange of different perceptions and perspectives;
* promoting the idea that we work on all kinds of patterns but that there are different perceptions and perspectives.
The aim was to re-emphasize the presence of different perceptions and perspectives and the importance of participation in analytical thinking as opposed to imposed and too-readily accepted theories, in arriving at this conclusion.
