📚 Our Core Principles
As the Department of Labour Economics and Industrial Relations, we adopt the following core principles and strategic goals to ensure sustainable development in our undergraduate and postgraduate education, research, and social engagement activities, and to continually strengthen our institutional capacity.
1. Critical and Analytical Thinking: Equipping students with the ability to think multidimensionally, critically question, and evaluate alternative perspectives in areas such as labour markets, social security systems, industrial relations, and social inequalities.
2. Theoretical Depth and Practical Knowledge: Training individuals who are well-versed in the core theories of the discipline, capable of analysing issues related to social policy and working life through theoretical frameworks, and equipped with strong practical competencies.
3. Interdisciplinary Approach: Fostering comprehensive perspectives on social issues by cultivating versatile analytical skills that draw from fields such as economics, sociology, law, and political science.
4. Scientific Knowledge Production and Academic Originality: Encouraging the production of original, high-quality, and critical academic work in accordance with the principles of academic ethics, and promoting a socially responsive approach to knowledge creation.
5. Social Contribution and Institutional Responsibility: Channelling the department’s academic expertise towards public benefit, contributing to the development of policies based on social justice, equality, and human dignity.
6. National and International Competence: Equipping students with the knowledge and skills necessary to take active roles in labour, social policy, and union-related matters at both national and global levels.
7. Ethical Values and Academic Responsibility: Establishing a culture of ethics that prioritises academic integrity, scientific impartiality, and social responsibility throughout all education and research processes.
1. Enhancing Academic Competence: Improving academic content and research-based teaching processes to train graduates with in-depth theoretical knowledge and analytical skills in working life, social security, and industrial relations.
2. Promoting Interdisciplinary and Applied Research: Supporting interdisciplinary and practice-oriented scientific research addressing current issues in social policy; enriching knowledge production through field studies, case analyses, and institutional collaborations.
3. Increasing Research and Publication Capacity: Ensuring active academic publication by faculty members and strengthening incentive mechanisms for national and international research projects, while encouraging the involvement of postgraduate students.
4. Developing Institutional and International Collaborations: Transforming academic knowledge into public benefit through projects with public institutions, private sector, and NGOs; increasing global visibility by engaging in international academic networks.
5. Creating a Qualified Graduate Profile: Ensuring graduates possess both theoretical knowledge and practical skills in social policy, high social awareness, a commitment to ethical values, and strong analytical thinking capabilities.
6. Implementing Innovative and Participatory Teaching Methods: Expanding digital learning tools and interactive teaching techniques within a student-centred education approach, enriching learning processes through active participation and experiential learning.
7. Strengthening Ethical Awareness and Academic Responsibility: Creating an academic environment where ethical values are prioritised at every stage of education and research, and where a culture of academic honesty and social responsibility is institutionalised.
