Alumni Success Stories

Melih Kılıç

I started the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Izmir University of Economics in 2012. During my undergraduate education I encountered many opportunities to gain experience in the field of renewable energy with the project work I participated in, voluntary and compulsory internships, and in addition, I took an active responsibility in different social innovation programs for 3 years at YGA - Young Guru Academy.

The knowledge and experience I gained at Izmir University of Economics, where I met in 2001 as "one of the first students", continues to guide me correctly in every step I take towards professional development. In 2005, I completed the Business Administration, International Relations and European Union departments of our University concurrently and graduated as one of the first Double Major Program graduates.

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.

Year 2007 summer and the last days of the university preference period. Frankly, I remember that I came to Izmir with the suggestions of my two older sisters who were very successful in their careers and school life and who lived in Izmir during the years when I approached private school with a very biased way. They were the first to recommend Izmir University of Economics to me. When I came to the university for the first time, we encountered its orange emblem and brick walls.
