Bachelor in Economics

This discipline studies how markets, institutions, and policy decisions shape the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. Coursework generally covers microeconomics, macroeconomics, statistics, econometrics, and money and banking, with electives available in areas such as labor economics, development, or international trade. This 4 year bachelor program is offered in English at Istanbul 29 Mayıs University in İstanbul, Turkey. Located in Istanbul, a city that bridges Europe and Asia and serves as Turkey's commercial hub, students are close to active financial markets and a diverse business environment. Training emphasizes quantitative skills, including statistical analysis and economic modeling, alongside the ability to interpret economic indicators and policy debates. Graduates typically pursue careers in banking, corporate finance, economic consulting, government agencies, and international organizations, and many go on to further study in economics or related quantitative fields. The discipline also develops skills in critical evaluation of data and argument, useful well beyond formal economics roles. An English-medium format makes the program accessible to international students without requiring prior Turkish proficiency. Over the four years, the curriculum moves from core economic theory and mathematics toward more specialized and applied coursework, equipping graduates with the analytical toolkit needed to interpret and respond to economic conditions in both private and public sector careers.
