Prof. Dr. F. Ömer Gökay
Dean of Faculty of Commerce

The Faculty of Commerce was founded with the intention of offering programs leading to bachelor's degrees in five subject areas: Information Systems And Technologies, Tourism And Hospitality, International Finance, International Logistics and Transportation, International Business And Trade, Management Information Systems. All departmental curricula focus upon major courses in business administration, economics, operations research, and statistics.  In addition, a large number of applied courses have also been developed, which, unlike those offered in many other four-year academic programs, have been designed to provide a direct link between education and the workplace.  The medium of instruction is English.

These programs emphasize national as well as international perspectives, keeping in mind the prevailing trends towards globalization. With high-quality course programs and modern facilities teaching activities maintain the highest international standards. Teaching and research staff have a wide range of experience and expertise in all areas of business and management studies, and remain active in research while collaborating with the local business community in a number of areas.  As a matter of policy, all faculty programs include workshop/seminar courses in their schedules, within which professionals from the business community, and other relevant contributors, are invited to lecture on key issues.  Summer and exchange programs and new seminar and workshop sessions accommodating the growing needs of service and manufacturing industries are also in the process of continuous development.

Close relationships are maintained between staff and students, and every effort is exerted to satisfy the different needs of individual students. Course designs are also based upon the requirements of the local and global business communities in order to maintain the highest quality of content. This is done with the clear intention of providing students with a better chance of eventually finding the most suitable professional positions. The courses offered also meet national and international standards, thus enabling students to transfer readily their earned credits to other institutions. This faculty therefore welcomes well-qualified students from abroad who are able to fulfill the legal and academic entry requirements established by the Turkish Ministry of Education, the Turkish Board of Higher Education, and Yeditepe University itself.

The programs of the faculty aim to provide accredited and specialized applied training of the highest quality. Programs are designed to permit broad-based study whilst allowing students flexibility in the pursuit of a chosen area of specialization. Contacts with renowned institutions abroad and link schemes also serve to enhance the existing quality of service by observing best practice and attempting, continuously, to introduce new ideas in international education.
