MAKÜ Tourism Community was established in the Fall Semester of the 2022-2023 Academic Year as a student community affiliated with the Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University Faculty of Tourism and started its activities in the same period. Contributing to the scientific, social, cultural, artistic, and sportive developments of students studying at Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University, training students as individuals with investigative and inquisitive qualities, ensuring they utilize their free time effectively and efficiently and helping their academic development are the general aims of the MAKÜ Tourism Community. In addition to the general aims, the Community also has specific aims. Ensuring MAKÜ students see and learn about historical, cultural, recreational, and touristic values, enabling students to participate in educational activities and events related to the field of tourism, organizing events that support students' career development, and organizing events to bring current tourism students together with our graduate tourism students who have made academic careers in tourism regions of universities and in the tourism sector are among the specific aims of the Community. Among these aims, there are also organizing recreational activities for students to discover recreational opportunities in Burdur and its surroundings where they can spend their free time, organizing social activities for students to get to know each other, mingle with each other, and develop social relationships, conducting activities that contribute to their personal development, and organizing nature walks and various activities in nature for students to meet with nature and gain environmental awareness. MAKÜ Tourism Community continues its activities actively within our School in line with these aims.
