Accounting and Finance Management

Hello, I am Ilknur Eskin. I am a faculty member at Trakya University Uzunköprü School of Applied Sciences, Department of Accounting and Finance Management. The Department of Accounting and Finance Management aims to train specialists for private companies operating in the fields of accounting, auditing and finance. The most important aim of our department is to train students who have the ability to think analytically and who can follow the developments in the accounting profession at a global level. For this purpose, we reinforce the theoretical education we have given to the students with internships and enable them to apply the theoretical knowledge they have learned. We provide Accounting, Auditing and Finance courses to the students of the Accounting and Finance Management Department. In addition, Marketing, Business, Economics and Entrepreneurship courses of the Department of Business Administration are also given. There is a computer laboratory that students of our department can use. Basic computer education and applied accounting courses are given in the computer laboratory. In addition, students have the opportunity to do research in the library of our School. Our students do a 40-day internship at the end of their 3rd year, that is, in the summer term. During the internship, our students have the opportunity to apply the theoretical knowledge they have acquired in 3 years. Erasmus exchange program services are offered in our department. Upon the request of our students, our students' placement activities within the scope of Erasmus are provided by the responsible faculty member. We organized conferences on entrepreneurship at Uzunköprü Applied Sciences Vocational School within the framework of the agreement our department made with Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University, İbrahim Bodur Entrepreneurship Center. In these conferences, male and female entrepreneurs who carry out entrepreneurial activities in Edirne and Çanakkale regions shared their entrepreneurial journeys with our students. In addition, upon the invitation of Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University, our students were invited to conferences on the strategies of Kale Bodur. We are aware of the regional dynamics as a department. Edirne region meets 44% of paddy production and 10% of sunflower oil production. In this context, we plan to create internship and employment opportunities for our students through agreements we will make with manufacturing companies and NGOs (non-governmental organizations). Graduates from the Department of Accounting and Finance Management can be employed in the private sector operating in the fields of accounting, auditing and finance. In addition, our students can work with the title of independent accountant and financial advisor when they pass the professional exams. When students gain the necessary qualifications, they can be employed as managers or assistant managers in accounting departments in the private sector. We recommend that candidates who will choose this department to be interested in accounting, auditing and finance. Especially in 2013, with the introduction of the Turkish Commercial Code, internal audit and independent audit professions became important. If our students are considering choosing these professions, if they plan to become experts in finance, they can choose this department. There is a cafeteria, canteen and sports center which belongs to our university. We also have a state dormitory to provide accommodation for our students. Our university provides support for participation in conferences held at Trakya University's central campus. With digitalization, the business models of businesses have also changed. This has also structurally changed the accounting profession. Today, the accounting profession is not only a profession that fulfills the legal responsibilities of taxpayers, but also carries out consultancy activities in order to maintain the economic existence of taxpayers. I recommend students who want to work in the fields of accounting and auditing, which will become more important in the future, and who want to specialize in these subjects, to choose our department. I wish good luck to the candidates who will take the exam.
