Economics education generally aims to study the decisions of individuals and societies in meeting human needs with limited resources, along with the reasons, effects, and efficiency of these decisions. The Undergraduate Program in the Department of Economics aims to provide students with a solid theoretical foundation in their field, supported by econometric and statistical methods and analyses in applied areas. The primary objective of this program is to offer students a broad perspective on approaching real-world economic events and problems, and to equip them with the ability to apply current analytical tools in solving these issues.

In line with this goal, our undergraduate program focuses on key areas such as Economic Theory, Applied Economics, Economic History, Economic Policy, International Economics, and Economic Development. The core courses in the undergraduate program are taught in English, and a significant portion of the education is conducted in English. Students who do not possess adequate English proficiency must undertake an English Preparatory Program before starting the undergraduate program. This preparatory education is provided by the Foreign Languages Department of Ege University. In the Department of Economics, courses in the first and second years are common for all students. From the third year onwards, students can specialize by selecting courses according to their interests.

The variety of elective courses and the freedom to take courses from other departments allow students to develop their knowledge and skills in their areas of interest, effectively and consciously preparing them for both professional and academic careers. Our graduates are capable of taking active roles in both the public and private sectors, including international markets and institutions. Additionally, they can pursue academic careers by continuing with master's and doctoral programs.
