I never taught about leaving Izmir after I graduated from high school. I wanted to attend a high-quality university to help me steer my future in the right direction and keep my current lifestyle intact. Izmir University of Economics served this purpose perfectly. I graduated in 2007 from a university which helped me build rock-solid friendships in addition to providing me with extensive knowledge and experience very much needed for my career.

2015 - Architecture Graduate
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.
