Dean's Message

Dear Students,

Sakarya Business School is delighted to offer the most hospitable welcome. Even though our faculty was established in 2010 officially, its foundations dates back to 1977 when the opening  of Management Engineering within the Sakarya State Academy of Architecture and Engineering. After the establishment of Sakarya University in 1992, our Business School participated to the body of The Faculty Economics and Administrative Sciences. These developments constitute the current foundations of our faculty. In 2010 as a result of YÖK decision, departments of Business Management, Tourism and Human Resources Management were gathered under the Sakarya Business School by separating from The Faculty Economics and Administrative Sciences.

As a consequence of industry demand, Health Management, Management Information Systems and International Trade departments were established which contributes to the growth and development of our business school. Teaching/learning language in English is aimed for some programs of our departments in near future.

Within the Erasmus framework, a significant number of students get benefit from the Exchange program as a result of bilateral agreements. Likewise, a remarkable number of students choose our university for education.

Our course plan and curriculum have been reviewed in accordance with the Bologna Process principles and the infrastructure of student-centered education has been created to a large extent. As a result of this we receive positive feedback about the quality of education in the interviews with our students. The world's most important business accreditation, AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), which we have been pursuing since 2014, is progressing rapidly and we will complete this process at a reasonable time. Thus, we will achieve this success, where only 5% of the world's business schools have it. Moreover, our Business Institute established in 2017 will make an important contribution to the development of our graduate studies. I completely believe that who prefer our faculty will have a solid business foundation and an international vision. I hope to see students in new academic year.

Best regards...

Prof. Dr. Ahmet Vecdi Can
