Özet:

 Fritz Neumark was born in Germany in 1900 and became an associate professor in 1927, as well as a full professor in 1932 after studying economics in Jena with the encouragement of Gerhard Kessler. Following Hitlers rise to power, Neumark sought refuge in Geneva, Switzerland, to escape repression and persecution. He was later invited to Türkiye as part of the higher education reform there, where he made significant contributions to the field of economics and finance, particularly through the establishment of the Faculty of Economics at Istanbul University and his role as the founding Director of the Department of Finance within the Faculty of Economics. With the end of World War II, both financial losses due to the depreciation of the Turkish lira and a longing for the homeland led Fritz Neumark and other German academicians whod come to Türkiye to return to their countries. Fritz Neumark not only authored numerous works during his time in Türkiye but also played a crucial role in educating many academicians through his lectures, methods, and approaches, many of which became influential in the field of economics and finance. His works on economics and finance were used as textbooks for many years. His efforts to institutionalize the Economics Institute, which operated under the Faculty of Law as an independent faculty, were met with success, and he played a significant role in the establishment of the Faculty of Economics. Neumark is remembered as an academician who made substantial contributions to the institutionalization of higher education and the advancement of academic research in Türkiye.

 1900 yılında Almanyada doğan Fritz Neumark, Gerhard Kesslerin teşvikiyle Jenada iktisat eğitiminin ardından 1927 yılında doçentlik, 1932 yılında profesörlük unvanını almıştır. Hitlerin iktidara gelmesi ile baskıdan ve kendilerine yönelik zulümden kaçmak üzere İsviçrenin Cenevre kentine iltica etmiştir. Daha sonra Türkiyedeki yükseköğretim reformu kapsamında Türkiyeye davet edilerek, İktisat Fakültesinin kurulması başta olmak üzere iktisat ve maliye ilmine büyük katkıları olmuş, İktisat Fakültesi Maliye Kürsünün kurucu Müdürü olarak görev yapmıştır. İkinci Dünya Savaşının sona ermesi ile birlikte gerek Türk lirasının değer kaybetmesi ile meydana gelen maddi kayıplar ve gerekse de vatan özlemi Fritz Neumark başta olmak üzere Türkiyeye gelen Alman akademisyenlerin ülkelerine geri dönmelerine sebep olmuştur. Fritz Neumark, Türkiyede bulunduğu yıllarda gerek kaleme almış olduğu eserleri gerekse de vermiş olduğu dersler ile birçok akademisyenin yetişmesini sağlamış, yöntem ve metotları ile yol gösterici olmuştur. İktisat ve maliye ilmine yönelik yazdığı eserleri uzun yıllar boyu ders kitabı olarak okutulmuştur. Hukuk Fakültesine bağlı olarak faaliyet gösteren İktisat Enstitüsünün bağımsız bir fakülte olarak kurumsallaşmasına ilişkin hazırladığı rapor karşılık bulmuş, İktisat Fakültesinin kurulmasında büyük rol oynamıştır. Neumark hem yükseköğretimin kurumsallaşmasında hem de Türkiyede akademik çalışmaların gelişmesinde büyük katkısı olan bir akademisyendir.
