Alumni Success Stories

Sena Tokgöz

Life at university is nothing compared to high school or anything else. When I chose Izmir University of Economics in 2009, I asked myself if I made the right decision. 5 years were ahead of me to see if I made the right decision or not. I’ve always tried my best at Izmir University of Economics and became a successful student. I did not qualify for any scholarships when I first enrolled at school but my hard work paid off and I qualified for 50% merit scholarship. In addition to courses in Public Relations and Advertising, I’ve taken many other electives from variety of fields including Business and Software Engineering.

I started my undergraduate education at Izmir University of Economics, Department of Interior Architecture and Environmental Design in 2015.

The biggest advantage of Izmir University of Economics for me was that the courses were taught in English and we had a second foreign language option.

During my education, I gained different experiences and connections thanks to my valuable interior architect-architect professors, which was a great chance.
