Yeditepe and Arizona State University Students Learn Airline Management Together

Yeditepe University and Arizona State University started a collaboration under the course Airline Management - II (Airline Management - ATH 313).

Within the scope of the ATH 313 course collaboration  by Yeditepe University Faculty of Commercial Sciences Tourism Hotel Management Department and the newly opened Faculty of Applied Sciences Aviation Department, 14 students from Yeditepe University and 17 students from Arizona State University took "AirlineOnline Simulation Training" together in teams of 2 and 4. In the training they received in a competitive environment via an online platform, student teams from the two universities learned the functions of all the elements of an airline such as "sales, marketing, distribution, operation, human resources, finance" through trial and error in the virtual environment.

Students, who had the opportunity to experience 3 years of airline management simulation in a 6-week training, also found the opportunity to establish an important network while developing abilities to make decisions, take, manage and analyze risks.

Within the scope of the ATH 313 course, "AirlineOnline Simulation Training" is planned to be implemented at the Yeditepe University Logistics Department as well as other departments.
