PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The Department of Foreign Trade, affiliated with Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Ezine Vocational School, is a dynamic academic unit that provides education, training, and research in the field of social sciences.

The Foreign Trade Program aims to train qualified professionals who are capable of working in both the public and private sectors, well-versed in foreign trade operations, and equipped with both theoretical knowledge and practical experience.

As of the 2024-2025 academic year, our program has adopted the 3+1 education model. Within this system, students complete three semesters of coursework at school and spend their final semester receiving hands-on training in companies. This structure enables students to gain real-world experience before graduation and to start their careers one step ahead.

Graduates who meet the necessary requirements may continue their studies in four-year undergraduate programs through the Vertical Transfer Exam (DGS).

The Foreign Trade Program was first launched in the 2014-2015 academic year under Ezine Vocational School. The program has a quota of 41 students, and the language of instruction is Turkish.
