In What Ways Do We Support the Professional, Cultural and Social Atmosphere?
There are two types of association structures classified into professional and social categories within the body of our University. Professional associations are specific to faculties, while social associations are of a general nature. In this context, our Faculty supports the development and experience gaining of our students in the professional field with the Tourism Association. In this context, OMU, with a total of 93 associations from photography to agriculture and cycling to chess, offers the institutional background necessary to create the atmosphere that will enable our students' study spaces and cultural development in the social field. Our students have carried out many activities and organizations with the associations. Ondokuz Mayıs University perceives its students as primary stakeholders and always supports new association proposals that will enable their development.

The visit to Samsun City Museum organized in 2022, the Çorum Hattusa Tour, the Career Days Event, and the Alumni Reunions can be given as examples of these activities. In addition, we visit vocational high schools in Bafra and introduce our Faculty to their students. Our academic staff were invited as speakers at events organized by OKA (Central Black Sea Development Agency) and Municipalities. We especially attach importance to integration with the locals in the social and cultural activities we organize. A cooking contest on local food was held in the Tourism Week event organized before the pandemic, and homemakers living in Bafra and Samsun participated in this contest. Our Faculty cooperates with Samsun Sheraton Hotel and KATID (Black Sea Touristic Businesses Association) within the scope of the master trainer program, and the managers of these institutions give lectures at our Faculty. https://turizm.omu.edu.tr/tr/haberler/20212022-bahar-donemi-ders-programlar/aaa.pdf
