Abstract
Individuals' awareness of their daily financial decisions directly affects their economic well-being. Therefore, it is crucial for educational institutions to provide students with basic financial knowledge through curriculum programs supporting financial literacy. This study aims to assess the impact of financial management and accounting courses in universities on the body of financial literacy knowledge of students. The study draws on the data obtained from a survey of the students at the Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences at Afyon Kocatepe University. The survey was conducted on a sample of 838 students during the spring semester of the 2021-2022 academic year. Research data were analyzed using frequency analysis and chi-square test with the SPSS 23.0 software package. The findings reveal that, overall, students have low levels of financial literacy. However, the results indicate that finance and accounting courses play a significant role in increasing financial literacy levels.
