2013 - Fashion Design Graduate
After a long research, in 2008, Izmir University of Economics became my only choice, considering the opportunities it provided such as "double major, diploma with international validity, medium of instruction being English and compulsory second foreign language education". I have successfully graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, Department of Fashion Design as an honour student, and from the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Department of Psychology in 2013 with full scholarship.

2012 - Fashion Design Graduate
It seems that my story started with the tape measure that my teacher hung around my neck while going to primary school. My friends at school representing While my classmates were selected as engineers, doctors or teachers for a school play I cried for being selected a tailor. Even if I was angry with my teacher for this choice that day, the first step of the profession I was going to do years later was taken in those years.
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.
