Ali Mat
2007 - International Trade and Finance Graduate
I started in 2002 and graduated in 2007. I had tremendous knowledge and experience in addition to long lasting friendships. I learned the best from the best teachers and being still in touch with them today makes my university step forward in my work life. I started my professional life in 2010 at DİMES, a leading fruit juice and Milk Company in Turkey, as Distribution Manager and Chain Stores Manager.
Bahadır Ulugöl
2015 - Executive MBA without Thesis Graduate
Our paths crossed with Izmir University of Economics in 2013 thanks to the Executive MBA program I studied. I can say that the fact that the program has up-to-date content for the business world and that the other students participating in the program have different sectors and experiences had a serious impact on my career.
Volkan Koç
2005 - Business Administration Graduate
The journey I started as one of the first students of Izmir University of Economics in 2001 has been one of the most meaningful turning points of my life. After 4 full years, I became one of the first graduates of the Faculty of Business Administration in 2005. The education I received, the experiences I gained and the contributions of my esteemed professors have been the most important force that carried me to success in different sectors.
Gamze Kaçar
2011 - Media and Communication Graduate
It feels like yesterday the first time I entered the University. All that excitement, worry, curiosity… A school that intersects different cultures and embraces them all. I graduated from Department of Media and Communication Systems, Faculty of Communication in 2011. I had the opportunity to perform an internship at DHA and Izmir Chamber of Commerce because of my experience in personal development, practical assignments, and presentations, as well as my active involvement in social responsibility projects, in addition to theoretical knowledge I learned throughout my education. At the same time, it was a great advantage for me that language of instruction was English and the opportunity to choose a second foreign language.
Utku Gürboğa
2009 - Mathematics Graduate
As of the summer of 2005, I was undecided between choosing a university in Istanbul or Izmir. I decided to choose a university in Izmir because I love the city I live in and thought that universities in Izmir could contribute a lot to my future career. When I started to research universities in Izmir, Izmir University of Economics had come to the fore both in terms of its teaching staff and its vision. In my meetings with IEU students at that time, I heard that everyone was extremely satisfied with the university.
