We are a department that has been active for 22 years with the goal to determine the structural changes in economy and the problems of general business administration, to develop problem solving skills and to devise modelling techniques that fit our aims. Among our cornerstones are to graduate more students into administrative positions of our institutions, to help them realize their inner potential to be go-getters, to prepare them for the entrance exams for high-tier, well-respected public positions, and to help them participate graduate and doctorate degree programs at ease, nationally or internationally. In this regard, our course curriculum is constantly subject to updates. In addition, we do all in our power to graduate students that stand out, with double-major program opportunities. We make an effort to aid our students in kick-starting their professional life after completing a period of one semester at Private - Public institutions within the framework of our Cooperative Education Program.

Abstract

The food and agricultural supply chains (F&ASCs) are made up of the operations and stakeholders involved in food production, processing, storage, trading, distribution, and consumption. It is argued that F&ASCs have various challenges that have a negative impact on supply chain bottom lines. It is also argued that blockchain technology (BcT), one of the disruptive technologies, is a remedy that enables open information sharing on a business network in F&ASCs to address those challenges. BcT helps to ensure real-time business transactions, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of supply chain networks. This chapter aims to provide a general discussion on how BcT can be used in the context of F&ASCs by drawing attention to the issues addressed by the most recent studies in the literature. To this end, the challenges to the traditional F&ASCs and how BcT responds to these challenges are discussed first. Then, the methods used in these studies are also clustered. Finally, future research opportunities are provided. © 2024 selection and editorial matter, Irem Onder and Fulya Acikgoz; individual chapters, the contributors.
