Özet:

 This study conducts a qualitative analysis of the mission and vision statements of the Atatürk Principles and Revolutionary History Institutes from four different universities using MAXQDA software. The analysis reveals that the strategic discourses of these institutes predominantly focus on themes of national identity, historical consciousness, and academic research. Key terms such as history, Türkiye, Republic, science and Atatürk are frequently used in the texts, suggesting that the institutional identities of these institutes are constructed based on the reinterpretation of national values and historical heritage. The intersection and proximity mapping analyses of codes reveal strong relationships between concepts such as Scientific Research, Individual Development, Vision and International Cooperation contributing to a deeper understanding of the thematic structure of the institutes strategic objectives. The findings suggest that while the mission and vision statements emphasize historical and national values, innovative approaches reflecting contemporary academic and societal dynamics such as technological advancements and social justice are not sufficiently highlighted. This indicates that the institutes need to adopt more effective strategies in the global academic competition and digital transformation processes. It is recommended that in the future, mission and vision statements be aligned with concepts such as digitalization, innovation, and social responsibility. The limitations of this study include the narrow sample of only four universities and the risk of subjectivity in the qualitative data analysis. To address these limitations, future research should use a broader sample and integrate quantitative methods. This study provides significant insights into institutional discourse analysis, offering a foundation for more comprehensive research on strategic communication and identity construction.

 Bu çalışma, MAXQDA yazılımı kullanılarak dört farklı üniversitenin Atatürk İlkeleri ve İnkılâp Tarihi Enstitülerine ait misyon ve vizyon metinlerinin nitel analizini gerçekleştirmiştir. Analizler, enstitülerin stratejik söylemlerinde milli kimlik, tarihsel bilinç ve akademik araştırma odaklı temaların baskın olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Metinlerde tarih, Türkiye, Cumhuriyet, bilim ve Atatürk gibi kavramların yüksek frekansla yer alması, enstitülerin kurumsal kimliklerini milli değerler ve tarihsel mirasın yeniden yorumlanması temeli üzerine inşa ettiklerini göstermektedir. Kod kesişim ve yakınlık haritaları analizleri, Bilimsel Araştırma, Bireysel Gelişim, Vizyon ve Uluslararası İşbirliği gibi kavramlar arasında güçlü ilişkiler olduğunu ortaya koyarak, enstitülerin stratejik hedeflerine ilişkin tematik yapıyı daha derinlemesine anlamamıza katkı sağlamıştır. Bulgular, enstitülerin misyon ve vizyon metinlerinde tarihsel ve milli değerlerin ön planda tutulduğunu ancak çağdaş akademik ve toplumsal dinamikleri yansıtan yenilikçi yaklaşımlar, teknolojik gelişmeler ve toplumsal adalet gibi unsurların yeterince vurgulanmadığını göstermektedir. Bu durum, enstitülerin küresel akademik rekabet ortamında ve dijital dönüşüm süreçlerinde daha etkin bir strateji izlemeleri gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Gelecekte, üniversitelerin misyon ve vizyon metinlerinin dijitalleşme, yenilikçilik ve toplumsal sorumluluk gibi kavramlarla uyumlu hale getirilmesi önerilmektedir. Araştırmanın sınırlılıkları, yalnızca dört üniversitenin örneklem olarak alınmış olması ve nitel veri analizinde öznellik riskinin bulunmasıdır. Bu sınırlılıkların aşılması için daha geniş bir örneklem grubunun kullanılması ve nicel yöntemlerle desteklenen analizlerin yapılması önerilmektedir. Bu çalışma, kurumsal söylem analizine dair önemli bulgular sunarak, stratejik iletişim ve kimlik inşasına dair daha kapsamlı araştırmalar için bir temel oluşturmuştur.
