Answer: Master’s program offered under the title of “Psychology Master’s Program” has two different modules: Social Psychology and Experimental Psychology. Besides, as of 2019-2020 academic year, students will be accepted in the Clinical Psychology master’s program as a separate graduate field. The PhD program offered under the title of “Psychology PhD Program” also includes two modules: Social Psychology and Applied Psychology. Apart from these areas, we do not have any graduate program (e.g. Developmental Psychology) for other sub-fields of psychology. Each of these different modules determines its own quota each year. These quotas are announced every year on the Graduate School of Social Sciences. Although there are some common compulsory courses in these programs, each has its own pool of elective courses and the student is obliged to choose courses from the elective pool of the module in which the module is registered.
