Mehmet

Thank you very much for meeting me, Mehmet, I realise how busy PhD students are. So, by way of introduction, please tell me about yourself, your background, and your research interests.

Thank you for having me. I’m Mehmet, I’m a third-year PhD student. I did my BA in Political Science and IR in Istanbul and then in 2018 I came to CEU (in Budapest) to do my MA, and now I’m still here!

 

Did you take any gaps in between or did you do them in succession?

I did each in succession, so no gaps.
