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.
Cansu Adaş
2013 - Mathematics Graduate
In every period of my education life, the lesson I was most interested in and the most successful was mathematics. Therefore, in 2008, it was inevitable that my preference form would consist of mathematics departments of universities. And why Izmir University of Economics? The well-equipped academic staff who have contributed greatly to science with their articles and books published in Turkey and abroad, scholarship opportunities, student life in a wonderful city like Izmir, and the medium of instruction being English, as well as the second foreign language education they provide played an important role in my choice of the Mathematics Department of Izmir University of Economics.
Gülbalca Çakıroğlu
2012 - Psychology Graduate
After I graduated from the Department of Psychology, Izmir University of Economics, which is dear to me, I was accepted to Dokuz Eylül University Clinical Neuroscience Master's program due to my interest in brain and its working principles. My acceptance process of course was not easy like every other success story, as someone who graduated from the Turkish-Mathematics department in a bad high school education, it was beyond my dream to enter a department that accepted students with quantitative score type.
Utku Utkan
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.
