I graduated from the Occupational Health and Safety Program in 2022. When I first went to the field as a graduate of Izmir University of Economics, I was not a stranger at all. Because throughout my education, I realized that we have learned the professional side of our work and everything, thanks to our professors who also come from the field, who also work as professional managers, and that we graduated fully equipped. I am currently working as Field Occupational Health and Safety Officer at Ateş Wind Power BOSBI Construction Site, one of the largest renewable energy facilities in Turkey, and also in the team of Aydın Aktuğ, my professor from the school.
