I started Izmir University of Economics, Department of Software Engineering in 2012. I believe that the lessons we took from our professors, who are experts and leading names in their fields, and the experiences they shared with us, played a very important role in building my career.

2018 - Business Administration Graduate
After graduating from high school with the first place in 2013, despite the many good options for me, my only choice was the Department of Business Administration at Izmir University of Economics with 100% scholarship. I can see how correct my decision was now, which seemed risky at first. I took my first step into entrepreneurship with the TUBITAK projects I developed during my high school years. I was introduced to the professional side of entrepreneurship with the entrepreneurship events organized by the Embryonix Incubation Center during my first year at the University.

2008 - Computer Engineering Graduate
I’ve always wanted to become a Computer Engineer. Even in a middle school yearbook, my friends wrote about seeing me as Computer Engineer in the future. My personal interests and the importance of technologies in our lives made me become a student at Department of Computer Engineering at Izmir University of Economics in 2004. After I graduated, I started to work with Embryonix, a great advantage offered by the University. My first job experience started in my senior year and continued the following year.

2011 - Media and Communication Graduate
I got into Izmir University of Economics Faculty of Communication, Department of Media and Communication with full scholarship, as my first choice in 2006. Almost everyone around me asked why I did not choose another school in Istanbul, that I would get into that school anyway. I never wanted to leave Izmir and I think the best place to get education in Izmir was Izmir University of Economics.

2009 - Industrial Systems Engineering Graduate
I started my education at Izmir University of Economics in 2005 as one of the first students at Department of Industrial Systems Engineering (now Department of Industrial Engineering). Of course I had doubts about choosing a new department of a relatively young university, but, when I was convinced that the University offered a high quality education system and teaching staff based on the needs of the region and the country, my worries were replaced by a different excitement. In addition to being raised by internationally recognized academics during my 4 year undergraduate education, it was also rewarding to see our department maturing and improving along with us and being a part of it has always been a point where I felt the advantage.
