I received my bachelor’s with a major in Architecture and a minor in Interior Architecture and Environmental Design from the Izmir University of Economics (IUE) in 2015. The most important factors that led me to select IUE was the distinguished professors, the courses being taught in English, and the opportunity to choose Italian as my 2nd foreign language during my degree. Thanks to my minor degree, I was selected to do an internship in Japan where I gained valuable experience and connections with professionals from different cultures and backgrounds. After graduating, I worked in the design, tender and construction phases of the retail and housing projects in FMB Architecture, Construction, and Project Management.

In every period of my education life, the lesson I was most interested in and the most successful was mathematics. Therefore, in 2008, it was inevitable that my preference form would consist of mathematics departments of universities. And why Izmir University of Economics? The well-equipped academic staff who have contributed greatly to science with their articles and books published in Turkey and abroad, scholarship opportunities, student life in a wonderful city like Izmir, and the medium of instruction being English, as well as the second foreign language education they provide played an important role in my choice of the Mathematics Department of Izmir University of Economics.
