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.

2011 - Media and Communication Graduate
It feels like yesterday the first time I entered the University. All that excitement, worry, curiosity… A school that intersects different cultures and embraces them all. I graduated from Department of Media and Communication Systems, Faculty of Communication in 2011. I had the opportunity to perform an internship at DHA and Izmir Chamber of Commerce because of my experience in personal development, practical assignments, and presentations, as well as my active involvement in social responsibility projects, in addition to theoretical knowledge I learned throughout my education. At the same time, it was a great advantage for me that language of instruction was English and the opportunity to choose a second foreign language.

Dilara Barut
2011 - Translation and Interpretation (English) Graduate
Izmir University of Economics was my dream university. Because in 2007 it was one of the rare universities that had translation booths. That's why it was my first choice. I didn't regret my decision at all when I came to the University. You can be sure that it is a university that breaks the perception of most of the people around as "Private university, you pay, and you graduate."
