As Izmir University of Economics Alumni Relations Office, we continue alumni information update activities to strengthen our communication with you, our esteemed alumni. By expanding the scope of what we regularly do every year, we decided to conduct a survey this year to have more information about you and to learn about your expectations about the University.
The information requested by you in the survey will be used to support our graduates for career planning, to monitor graduate success, and to create an alumni network. In addition, they will be maintained by the Alumni Relations Office to support education, teaching and research studies and research on social, cultural, and academic activities of the University.

2018 - International Trade and Finance Graduate
I got into Izmir University of Economics Department of International Trade and Finance with full scholarship in 2013. I worked part time in different departments of the school starting from the 1st grade. During my undergraduate education, I tried to participate as much as possible in the career events and conferences of our own school, as well as the events organized by other universities.
Erdem Kalaycı
2012 - Software Engineering Graduate
This profession group is unlike any other profession group. Once you love it, once you have a taste of problem solving, you can always ask for more. These are my current thoughts, of course. It is a very classic story about this profession, in daily life you are often asked "this computer needs formatting, can you help?". Everything started this way for me as well. I spent all my summer holidays before university working at my cousins' computer shop. I had one goal, majoring about the computer!

Kayahan Dede
2010 - Industrial Design Graduate
I graduated from Design Management Option, Department of Industrial Design, Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, Izmir University of Economics in 2010. Thanks to the design management option available only at my university in our country, learning not only the creativity side of the design but also the business world side of it made me very competitive in the labor market. So much so that I can think as a business administrator, a marketer and a public relations specialist and communicate with them in a technical sense, thanks to the interdisciplinary lessons we have studied and friends from different departments I met in these courses.
