95% of our full-time faculty members have completed their doctoral studies at distinguished universities abroad, and most of them have joined Koç University with prior international work experience. CASE faculty members are among the leading academics in Turkey in terms of publications, citations, TÜBA and TÜBİTAK awards, and funded research projects. Many of our faculty members also conduct research at Koç University-TÜSİAD Economic Research Forum, Migration Research Center, and Center for Research on Globalization, Peace and Democratic Governance (GLODEM), creating high social impact.
Koç University has adopted the United Nations Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME). Educating responsible leaders for a sustainable world is among our most imperative goals. Koç University College of Administrative Sciences and Economics and the Graduate School of Business have become the first and only school in Turkey and its region to receive the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) Accreditation given by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD). It is also part of the outstanding CEMS Global Alliance in Management Education, of which only one selected university from each of the 34 different countries is a member. In 2021, CASE and GSB have also received AACSB Accreditation and with the AMBA Accreditation of our Graduate School of Business, we reached a very special and prestigious status, the ‘Triple Crown’, which is owned by less than 1% of Business Schools and Colleges in the world.
I invite you to closely examine and learn more about the Koç University College of Administrative Sciences and Economics education and research programs.
