Aslı Nur Timur Yordanov
2015 - Architecture Graduate
I received my bachelor’s with a major in Architecture and a minor in Interior Architecture and Environmental Design from the Izmir University of Economics (IUE) in 2015. The most important factors that led me to select IUE was the distinguished professors, the courses being taught in English, and the opportunity to choose Italian as my 2nd foreign language during my degree. Thanks to my minor degree, I was selected to do an internship in Japan where I gained valuable experience and connections with professionals from different cultures and backgrounds. After graduating, I worked in the design, tender and construction phases of the retail and housing projects in FMB Architecture, Construction, and Project Management.
