When I was about to graduate from the Occupational Health and Safety Program in 2022, I started my internship at Ateş Wind Power facility with the reference of my teacher Aydın Aktuğ. Later, I was hired as a staff. I am still working as a Health and Safety Technician at Ateş Wind Power Zeytindağ factory. When I started to do my professional job as an IUE graduate, I was fully prepared for what I was going to do, thanks to our professors who worked both academically and professionally. Because I realized that we graduated as having learned both the theoretical part and the experience and operational side of the profession.

I started at Department of International Trade and Finance with 100% scholarship in 2003 and graduated in 2007 with High Honors.

When I graduated, I prepared for inspectorship exams of the banks in the light of theoretical information I learned, and passed the first exam I took. I started my career as Assistant Inspector at Turkish Economy Bank.

I am one of the first students and one of the first graduates also. It wasn’t an easy decision; I had to take a risk. But I realized it was the best decision after I graduated. I can see it clearly now after the best quality education I received. I was able to find employment at companies I liked and put everything I learned into practice.
