Ömer Kartal

I started my undergraduate study in Tourism Management at Dokuz Eylül University in 2004.  But three years have passed by the time I started to make different plans for my future. I can honestly say that taking the OSS exam again and being admitted to Izmir University of Economics has been a turning point in my life even though I have lost all that time. A real milestone…If I haven’t done that I would be engaged in a profession I really did not enjoy. Instead, I am working as a Comptroller at Ministry of Finance.

Sercan Canbolat

Sercan Canbolat, who graduated from Izmir University of Economics, Department of International Relations and European Union as the top student in the department, top student in the faculty and the second top in the university, also completed his double major program in the Department of Economics with an honor degree. In the year he graduated, he was accepted to Bilkent University International Relations (with Thesis) Master's program with full scholarship and completed the program with first place. He was awarded a James W. Fulbright scholarship for doctorate study in the United States while continuing his master's program. 

Pınar Özen

I started the Department of Translation and Interpretation at Izmir University of Economics in 2011. My biggest motivation was that I entered with a 50% merit scholarship and that my brother Alperen Özen also took lessons from the same teachers in the same department of the same university. I graduated in 2015 by taking lessons from doyens of the department.  As soon as I graduated, I started to work at one of Europe's largest digital agency, Emakina, as an assistant in Izmir office, the only office of the company in Turkey at that time.

Mete Ömerali

I’ve always wanted to become a Computer Engineer. Even in a middle school yearbook, my friends wrote about seeing me as Computer Engineer in the future. My personal interests and the importance of technologies in our lives made me become a student at Department of Computer Engineering at Izmir University of Economics in 2004. After I graduated, I started to work with Embryonix, a great advantage offered by the University. My first job experience started in my senior year and continued the following year.
