I got into the Department of Psychology, which I had dreamed of since childhood and worked hard for it, in 2010. For me, it was important to get a quality education, both theoretical and practical, to improve myself in the best way and improve my foreign language skills. I understood better what a right decision I made in terms of vision and education quality after I graduated in 2015.

Büşra Kırmızıoğlu
2009 - Public Relations and Advertising Graduate
Immediately after graduating with honors in 2009, I completed my academic education in 2011, which I continued at a postgraduate degree in Istanbul. I gained professional experience for 3 years in different advertising and PR agencies in Istanbul. As a result of my application to the lecturing staff opened by YOK in the Rectorate of Pamukkale University in 2017, I was entitled to work as a Public Relations Specialist in this institution. I have been working as the Director of Press and Public Relations since 2019 at the institution where I am still working. Since the very beginning of my career, the most important fact that I learned during my education at Izmir University of Economics and which sheds light on me is the fact that as long as the information was conveyed to people with a correct communication method, that information provided a benefit beyond the meaning acknowledged by the next generation.
