I graduated from Izmir University of Economics Justice Program in 2015. In addition to the experience my university has brought me, I think many trainings and conferences I have received contributed to my personal development and business life. I started my business life in Izmir Metropolitan Municipality in the tender unit about 7 months after graduation and I am very happy to work here. I am grateful to my professors for their friendliness, kindness and trust in us who always supported us in terms of improving ourselves and changing our view of life and gave the best education in their field. I love them all. Looking back, I say I'm glad I studied at Izmir University of Economics and received my alumni card, which I proudly carry.

2011 - Fashion Design Graduate
Even though I was in Science-Mathematics department in high school and planned to become an engineer, I realized that I could not do a job I did not like my whole life. I had a change of mind in my senior year in high school , and I chose Department of Fashion Design of Izmir University of Economics. I did not have any idea about fashion design before, I consulted famous designers. I proved them right at the end of 4 years with the contributions of my school. There were many opportunities that my school provided me with during the school period.

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.

2015 - Department of Media and Communications Graduate
“The class newspaper we published in elementary school and the small plays I wrote and staged were my first steps toward an interest in the world of communication. This curiosity gradually turned into a passion and led me to the Department of Media and Communication at Izmir University of Economics. Thanks to the strong academic staff and modern studio facilities, my university years became one of the most valuable periods that shaped my career.

2015 - Psychology Graduate
I got into the Department of Psychology, which I had dreamed of since childhood and worked hard for it, in 2010. For me, it was important to get a quality education, both theoretical and practical, to improve myself in the best way and improve my foreign language skills. I understood better what a right decision I made in terms of vision and education quality after I graduated in 2015.
Egemen Akın
2009 - Industrial Systems Engineering Graduate
I started my education at Izmir University of Economics in 2005 as one of the first students at Department of Industrial Systems Engineering (now Department of Industrial Engineering). Of course I had doubts about choosing a new department of a relatively young university, but, when I was convinced that the University offered a high quality education system and teaching staff based on the needs of the region and the country, my worries were replaced by a different excitement. In addition to being raised by internationally recognized academics during my 4 year undergraduate education, it was also rewarding to see our department maturing and improving along with us and being a part of it has always been a point where I felt the advantage.
