KAYSERI. - Turkish Erciyes University last year opened new department
on the Armenian language and literature. This year the department
had great interest among applicants.
Vice rector stated that Armenian language and literature and Jewish
language and literature departments registered sharp increase of
applicants as compared to last year, Turkish Sondakika reports. 12
applicants out of 15 have already been admitted in the university
program. Last year only 6 students have been admitted at the program.
Vice rector believed that no applicant would desire to study at those
departments after Armenian-Turkish and Israeli-Turkish relations
were deteriorated. However, just the contrary happened. Turkey has
business and cultural relations set with Armenia and Israel, which
will help their graduates to find job in those spheres.
Armenian and Jewish departments opened last year at Erciyes University
and are unique among Turkish universities.
The vice-rector had stated earlier that they aim to have specialists
working in Armenian archives and fighting against Armenian theses.
