Gamze Kaçar
2011 - Media and Communication Graduate
It feels like yesterday the first time I entered the University. All that excitement, worry, curiosity… A school that intersects different cultures and embraces them all. I graduated from Department of Media and Communication Systems, Faculty of Communication in 2011. I had the opportunity to perform an internship at DHA and Izmir Chamber of Commerce because of my experience in personal development, practical assignments, and presentations, as well as my active involvement in social responsibility projects, in addition to theoretical knowledge I learned throughout my education. At the same time, it was a great advantage for me that language of instruction was English and the opportunity to choose a second foreign language.
Simin Ercan
2012 - International Relations and European Union Graduate
I stepped into Izmir University of Economics in 2002 for the first time. I dropped out of school in 2004 due to unexpected sad events. I returned to school in 2009 at the insistence of my family. During this time, I got married and became a mother. Everyone except me believed I could graduate, but I was caught between motherhood and being a student. Then I decided what I really wanted. I was very happy to be a part of Izmir University of Economics.

Egemen Akın
2009 - Industrial Systems Engineering Graduate
I started my education at Izmir University of Economics in 2005 as one of the first students at Department of Industrial Systems Engineering (now Department of Industrial Engineering). Of course I had doubts about choosing a new department of a relatively young university, but, when I was convinced that the University offered a high quality education system and teaching staff based on the needs of the region and the country, my worries were replaced by a different excitement. In addition to being raised by internationally recognized academics during my 4 year undergraduate education, it was also rewarding to see our department maturing and improving along with us and being a part of it has always been a point where I felt the advantage.
