dc.description | The History of Turkey course (HIST209) is a requirement for all Bilkent undergraduates. It is designed to encourage students to work in groups on projects concerning any topic of their choice that relates to the history of Turkey. It is designed as an interactive course with an emphasis on research and the objective of investigating events, chronologically short historical periods, as well as historic representations. Students from all departments prepare and present final projects for examination by a committee, with 10 projects chosen to receive awards. | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | In recent decades, women worldwide have faced historical challenges related to their limited participation in the scientific field. This phenomenon can be partly attributed to prevailing patriarchal societal beliefs. Turkey is not an exception to this case. Cultural and religious beliefs in Turkey have created a significant challenge for women scientists compared to their counterparts in Western societies. Thus, feeling represented in their area inspires women, as it encourages and motivates them. Dilhan Eryurt is an important name when it comes to Turkish women’s representation in STEM. This paper delves into a comprehensive analysis of statistics related to higher education in Turkey for women in the twentieth century and establishes a connection between these statistics and Dilhan Eryurt’s active years in her field, arguing that she had a noteworthy impact in encouraging Turkish women in STEM. | |
dc.description.abstract | Son yıllarda dünya genelinde kadınlar, bilim dalında sınırlı katılımlarıyla ilgili tarihsel zorluklarla karşı karşıya kaldı. Bu durum kısmen günümüzde de hakim olan ataerkil toplumsal tutumlara bağlanabilir. Türkiye de bu duruma istisna değildir. Türkiye’deki kültürel ve dini inançlar, Batı toplumlarındaki meslektaşlarına göre Türk kadın bilim insanları için önemli zorluklar oluşturmuştur. Bu nedenle, kendi alanlarında temsil edildiklerini hissetmek, kadınları teşvik ve motive eder. Dilhan Eryurt’u önemli kılan birçok şeyden biri de Türk kadınının STEM alanındaki temsiline katkısıdır. Bu makale, yirminci yüzyılda Türkiye’de kadınlar için yüksek öğrenime ilişkin istatistiklerin kapsamlı bir analizini ele almakta ve bu istatistikler ile Dilhan Eryurt’un alanındaki aktif yılları arasında bir bağlantı kurarak, onun Türk kadınlarını STEM konusunda teşvik etmede kayda değer bir etkiye sahip olduğunu ileri sürmektedir. | |
