Abstract:

The integration process of Turkey into the European Union has been increasingly continuing since 1960. This process specifically has impacts on social, economic, cultural and academic life. Various agreements have become effective in Europe to develop a common European Higher Education Area. One of the most important agreements is the Bologna Process, which aims to create a common curriculum in European universities. In addition, one other aim of Bologna Process is to achieve a certain standard in the quality and content of the courses offered. Accounting education has also been affected by this process in terms of the content and the credits of the courses. In this study, the curricula of Business Administration Departments of state and non-profit private universities in Turkey were examined. The selected universities were evaluated on the basis of national credits and ECTSs of the courses.
