Bachelor in Business Administration

Business Administration provides a broad foundation in how organizations are managed, covering areas such as management, marketing, finance, accounting, and human resources. Typical coursework includes organizational behavior, financial accounting, marketing principles, business statistics, and strategic management, along with electives that allow students to explore particular functional areas in greater depth. As students progress, they often work on case studies and projects that require applying business concepts to realistic organizational problems, developing skills in analysis, decision-making, and communication that are relevant across industries. Graduates commonly pursue careers in management, marketing, finance, human resources, and consulting, across both private companies and public organizations, and the degree also serves as a foundation for graduate study in business or management. This four-year bachelor's program is offered by Istanbul University in Istanbul, Turkey, with instruction delivered in English, giving students access to internationally used business terminology and case material and preparing them to work in global business environments. Istanbul University is one of Turkey's oldest and largest universities, with a long-established business faculty.
