Choosing a university and department creates a great responsibility for every student. Although I had ideas in mind before taking the university exam, I took the time to get to know the universities and departments. I was able to get into many of the public universities and programs that I had in mind, and I never planned to study at a private / foundation university. However, as I researched further, I decided that I should examine universities not only by name, department, city but also in terms of the opportunities they offer, and that my choice would only be correct in this way. And thanks to this mind frame, I met Izmir University of Economics. During the open house, the student mentors were giving a tour around campus for prospective students who came to see and learn about Izmir University of Economics.

2016 - Industrial Engineering Graduate
I graduated from the Department of Industrial Systems Engineering, which I started with a scholarship in 2011, as an honor student in 2016. During my undergraduate education, I had the opportunity to benefit from many different opportunities offered by my university, especially English being the medium of instruction. I had the opportunity to work as a project intern in global companies, as departmental courses offered the opportunity to put theoretical knowledge into practice with project assignments.

2016 - Software Engineering Graduate
Our paths crossed with Izmir University of Economics in 2012 when I started my education life in Software Engineering with a full scholarship. Thanks to the quality education I received from the valuable academics and the two foreign languages provided by the University, I had the chance to equip myself at the best possible way. In addition to two compulsory internships, I also performed one voluntary internship. In my last compulsory internship, I was accepted by the Vestel R&D Center and had a productive internship experience of 1 month in the Testing department. In 2016, I was selected to Havelsan's Cyber Security Summer School Program and successfully completed the program.
