Bachelor in Economics and Finance

The tuition fee is 2,067 USD per year.

Economics and Finance examines how individuals, firms, and governments allocate scarce resources, combining core economic theory with the tools of financial analysis. Students typically study microeconomics, macroeconomics, econometrics, corporate finance, financial markets, and quantitative methods, building a foundation for interpreting economic data and evaluating investment and policy decisions. Coursework often progresses from introductory theory toward applied topics such as banking, risk management, financial modeling, and international economics, giving graduates both analytical rigor and practical financial literacy. Graduates commonly pursue careers in banking, investment analysis, corporate finance, consulting, insurance, and public policy, or continue to graduate study in economics, finance, or business administration. This four-year bachelor's program is offered by Istanbul Technical University in Istanbul, Turkey, and is taught in English, preparing students to work with international literature and communicate in a global business environment. Istanbul Technical University is one of Turkey's long-established technical universities, and situating an economics and finance program within a technical institution allows students to draw on strong quantitative coursework alongside standard economics and finance training. Students in Istanbul benefit from proximity to one of the region's major financial and commercial centers, offering exposure to banking, industry, and trade that complements classroom learning. Over the course of the program, students move from foundational mathematics and economic principles to more specialized finance and policy electives, developing skills in data analysis, financial reporting, and economic forecasting that are broadly applicable across the private and public sectors.
