NECESSITY OF ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE COURSES IN TOURISM EDUCATION AT UNDERGRADUATE LEVEL

Abstract

The people who will get bachelor’s degree in tourism should be equipped with necessary accounting and finance knowledge for analyzing and decision-making, besides the core knowledge. The purpose of this study is to analyze the necessity of accounting and finance courses in the curriculums of undergraduate schools related with tourism education and making suggestions. A survey is conducted to 2 different undergraduate tourism programs’ students about their opinions about the efficiency of accounting and finance courses they get in their education terms. According to the results, core courses about accounting and finance are in the curriculum, but the number of the courses related to decision making is still not sufficient, even it is better than before.  Students think that General Accounting, Cost Accounting, Managerial Accounting and Cost Control in Tourism Establishments should be taught mostly in Accounting-Finance courses group.
