İktisat

Economics is the study of how individuals, firms, and governments allocate scarce resources, covering both microeconomic analysis of markets and firms and macroeconomic analysis of national and global economies. A typical curriculum includes microeconomics, macroeconomics, econometrics, statistics, and economic history, along with electives in areas such as international trade, public economics, or financial economics. Students develop skills in quantitative analysis, economic modeling, and data interpretation that are applicable across business, finance, and policy settings. Graduates pursue careers in banking, financial analysis, consulting, corporate strategy, public policy, and international organizations, and many continue into graduate study in economics, finance, or public policy. The combination of theoretical and quantitative training also supports roles in market research and economic journalism. This bachelor's program in Economics is offered by Galatasaray University in İstanbul, Turkey, and is taught in French over four years, in keeping with the university's Francophone curriculum. Students work through French-language economics coursework and quantitative methods classes throughout the degree. The four-year structure generally progresses from foundational micro- and macroeconomic theory toward applied and specialized coursework in later years, preparing graduates for analytical careers in both the private and public sectors as well as further academic study. Its French-medium instruction at Galatasaray University reflects a broader Francophone academic tradition that shapes much of the university's curriculum.
