The Department of Aviation Management opened in 2011 under the Atılım University Graduate School of Civil Aviation. The department curriculum encompasses management and aviation, and education is offered in English as the language of global aviation. Aviation is a sector with a potential for growth globally by around five percent each year, and nationally by ten percent or more, exceeding the worldwide averages. The Department of Aviation Management trains individuals equipped to work in aviation at public institutions, airlines, ground operation institutions, terminal services and general aviation organizations. Our department offers an opportunity for students to study abroad for a semester under our Erasmus+ contracts, and a chance to familiarize themselves with the sector via summer internship programs organized twice throughout their period of study. In addition, some of the aviation courses are presented at relevant institutions (e.g. Terminal operations).

Abstract

Drawing on theory of reasoned action and identity theory, we examined the mediating effect of workplace friendship on the association between relational job crafting and the intention to stay. The hypotheses were tested by analysing the data collected from 228 participants. We found positive and significant relationships between the intention to stay and relational job crafting, as well as with workplace friendship. Furthermore, a positive and significant relationship between relational job crafting and workplace friendship was found. The results also indicate that workplace friendship has a partial mediating effect on the relationship between relational job crafting and the intention to stay.
