2014 - Visual Communication Design Graduate
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.

2013 - Mathematics Graduate
In every period of my education life, the lesson I was most interested in and the most successful was mathematics. Therefore, in 2008, it was inevitable that my preference form would consist of mathematics departments of universities. And why Izmir University of Economics? The well-equipped academic staff who have contributed greatly to science with their articles and books published in Turkey and abroad, scholarship opportunities, student life in a wonderful city like Izmir, and the medium of instruction being English, as well as the second foreign language education they provide played an important role in my choice of the Mathematics Department of Izmir University of Economics.

2007 - International Trade and Finance Graduate
I started at Department of International Trade and Finance with 100% scholarship in 2003 and graduated in 2007 with High Honors. The most important thing the University helped me with was to equip me with presentation skills by improving my analytical skills. When I graduated, I prepared for inspectorship exams of the banks in the light of theoretical information I learned, and passed the first exam I took. I started my career as Assistant Inspector at Turkish Economy Bank.

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.
