Alumni Success Stories

Turuhan Alkır

I have squeezed 2 diplomas, 4 internships, 9 short films, 14 theater plays and hundreds of good memories into my Izmir University of Economics adventure that started in 2012. I graduated from the Department of International Relations and EU with a full scholarship in 2017, and from the Department of Media and Communication (my double major program) in 2018 as a high honor student.

Büşra Kırmızıoğlu

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.

I started studying Mechatronics Engineering in 2017 with a 50% scholarship and graduated as the top student in my department in 2023.  During this time, I had the opportunity to develop myself to the fullest thanks to the high-quality education I received from our esteemed academics and the opportunity to study two foreign languages provided by my University.
