Volkan Koç
2005 - Business Administration Graduate
The journey I started as one of the first students of Izmir University of Economics in 2001 has been one of the most meaningful turning points of my life. After 4 full years, I became one of the first graduates of the Faculty of Business Administration in 2005. The education I received, the experiences I gained and the contributions of my esteemed professors have been the most important force that carried me to success in different sectors.

In the same month (August 2017), I started to work again as a permanent Technician within the IT Department.
Yeliz Cengiz
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.
