Mission and Vision

MISSION:

The main mission of our institute is to conduct interdisciplinary research to understand and explain international relations, world politics and global problems and to share the results of these studies with academic, political and social actors. In this direction, with the graduate programs conducted in the fields of security studies and humanitarian aid studies, our Institute aims to train experts who will contribute to the definition and implementation of our country's strategic goals. From the Arab Spring to the European Union, from the Islamic world to the Western world, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, all international, global and local developments, transformations and processes and international politics, civilization, regional integrations, crisis, conflict, war, peace, cooperation that concerns international relations and strategy fall within the scope of our institute’s work. ULİSA's research has an interdisciplinary feature due to the multidimensional nature of international relations, especially global, political, cultural, strategic, economic and social developments in the current period.
