What is the Department of Agricultural Trade and Management?

The Department of Agricultural Trade and Management aims to meet the required personnel capacity on a sectoral basis by providing training on many different subjects for the needs of Turkey, a predominantly agricultural country. In this department, students learn the trade of the products produced and the management process of the enterprises in this field by taking trade knowledge and primary agriculture and soil knowledge. Although the Department of Agricultural Trade and Management is a department with extremely high standards, it allows the work in the agricultural sector to be carried to a more global dimension and to do more consciously. Students who receive training on issues such as increasing the yield of agricultural plants grown in our country and sold to the world, and marketing these products to the world at higher standards, make significant contributions to agricultural trade.

It is easier for students to reach the desired level in the international arena by combining their knowledge in fields such as economy, trade, and business with their expertise in agriculture and soil.
