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.

As of the summer of 2005, I was undecided between choosing a university in Istanbul or Izmir. I decided to choose a university in Izmir because I love the city I live in and thought that universities in Izmir could contribute a lot to my future career. When I started to research universities in Izmir, Izmir University of Economics had come to the fore both in terms of its teaching staff and its vision. In my meetings with IEU students at that time, I heard that everyone was extremely satisfied with the university.

I started my undergraduate education at Izmir University of Economics, Department of Interior Architecture and Environmental Design in 2015.

The biggest advantage of Izmir University of Economics for me was that the courses were taught in English and we had a second foreign language option.

During my education, I gained different experiences and connections thanks to my valuable interior architect-architect professors, which was a great chance.

I enrolled in the Department of Software Engineering of Izmir University of Economics with a full scholarship in 2012. Even though the software engineering program was new in universities at that time, I started with enthusiasm with the encouragement of my brother and uncle. Many courses I took from engineering and other departments trained me to be a good engineer.  With the second foreign language opportunity offered by the University, I had the opportunity to learn Spanish, which I always wanted to learn. Later, I started the Computer Games Certificate Program in the 3rd grade and had the opportunity to improve myself in this field. In the summer of the year I graduated, I went to Szeged, Hungary to perform an internship in the field of software testing, taking advantage of the Erasmus Program.

I enrolled to Izmir University of Economics Computer Programming in 2016. While I was still a student, I started to work as a Student ISKUR staff in the IT Directorate in January 2017. After completing my duty in June 2017, I also took part in the open house student team at the Promotion and Corporate Marketing Communications Directorate in July-August 2017, introducing the school and the department to the students.  In the same month (August 2017), I started to work again as a permanent Technician within the IT Department.
