2009 - International Relations and European Union Graduate
The undergraduate education I started to study at Izmir University of Economics in 2004 has created a solid foundation for me to start my academic career. Thanks to the presentations and assignments we prepared in classes, as well as the encouragement of active participation by all our professors in the Department of International Relations and the European Union, which I studied very fondly, the fact that analytical thinking and questioning became an indispensable part of our learning was reflected in all areas of my life.

Upon completing elementary and middle school in Switzerland, I continued my high school and university education in Izmir, and I graduated from Department of Economics (English program), Ege University in 2010.

2012 - Psychology Graduate
After I graduated from the Department of Psychology, Izmir University of Economics, which is dear to me, I was accepted to Dokuz Eylül University Clinical Neuroscience Master's program due to my interest in brain and its working principles. My acceptance process of course was not easy like every other success story, as someone who graduated from the Turkish-Mathematics department in a bad high school education, it was beyond my dream to enter a department that accepted students with quantitative score type.
