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.
Fatih Mert
2016 - Software Engineering Graduate
Our paths crossed with Izmir University of Economics in 2012 when I started my education life in Software Engineering with a full scholarship. Thanks to the quality education I received from the valuable academics and the two foreign languages provided by the University, I had the chance to equip myself at the best possible way. In addition to two compulsory internships, I also performed one voluntary internship. In my last compulsory internship, I was accepted by the Vestel R&D Center and had a productive internship experience of 1 month in the Testing department. In 2016, I was selected to Havelsan's Cyber Security Summer School Program and successfully completed the program.
Baran Ölekli
2012 - Public Relations and Advertising Graduate
When I entered Izmir University of Economics in 2007, where the medium of instruction is English, my English level was not at the beginner level. Thanks to the English Preparatory Program at Izmir University of Economics School of Foreign Languages, I successfully completed the English preparatory class in 1 year. In 2011, we visited leading advertising agencies and Corporate Communications units of corporate companies in Istanbul, which is the center of the media, communication and advertising sectors, within the scope of the industry trip in the 3rd grade. I had the opportunity to meet professionals in Istanbul and sent my resume for internship application.
Utku Gürboğa
2009 - Mathematics Graduate
As of the summer of 2005, I was undecided between choosing a university in Istanbul or Izmir. I decided to choose a university in Izmir because I love the city I live in and thought that universities in Izmir could contribute a lot to my future career. When I started to research universities in Izmir, Izmir University of Economics had come to the fore both in terms of its teaching staff and its vision. In my meetings with IEU students at that time, I heard that everyone was extremely satisfied with the university.

2016 - Civil Aviation Cabin Services Graduate
I became an Izmir University of Economics student by enrolling in the Civil Aviation Cabin Services Associate Degree Program as a result of my preferences in 2014. I packed my luggage and set off from Gaziantep to Izmir. Of course, I haven't been to Izmir before. I started my university life. We had a very nice class and teachers.
