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.

2003 - Business Administration Master Program Graduate
I had the privilege of attending the first graduation ceremony of Izmir University of Economics when I graduated from MBA program in 2003. When I was searching for graduate programs, I came across news about the establishment of our school and decided to attend the introduction meeting and enrolled in MBA program the first semester it started. I believe that receiving training from both estimable teachers in academia and experts from different sectors provided me a different point of view on business world and management.

I took my first step to psychology department, field I was dying to study at since middle school, in 2008 at Izmir University of Economics as my third choice. After completing a successful five-year education with full scholarship, I graduated as Honor Student in 2013.

2011 - Public Relations and Advertising Graduate
“How many public relations and advertising departments are there so that they take their students around the leading agencies of our country under the name of Media Trip, introduce the sector to them or host the leading names of the sector in their classes every week. These were good opportunities for us, and I believe I made good use of this opportunity for myself. Because I first met my first boss on a media trip in 2010.”
