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.
Murat Esen
2008 - Banking and Insurance Graduate
I started the Banking and Insurance program in 2004. In addition to the education process, I had the honor of representing this distinguished institution that we are a member of, with the social opportunities provided by my university, the opportunity to do sports and the success we have achieved with our school team. During the education process, I had the opportunity to develop myself in terms of different competencies.
Onur Güzey
2006 - Business Administration Graduate
I started my academic life as one of the first students of the university in 2001. Throughout our education life, we have had valuable teachers who have a reputation in their own fields, worked in certain areas of business and taught us to open every door. Izmir University of Economics is a turning point in my life, where I assumed the presidency of the student council in 2005-2006, and in the following years, where I took part in the management of the alumni association for a few years.
Pınar Özen
2015 - Translation and Interpretation (English) Graduate
I started the Department of Translation and Interpretation at Izmir University of Economics in 2011. My biggest motivation was that I entered with a 50% merit scholarship and that my brother Alperen Özen also took lessons from the same teachers in the same department of the same university. I graduated in 2015 by taking lessons from doyens of the department. As soon as I graduated, I started to work at one of Europe's largest digital agency, Emakina, as an assistant in Izmir office, the only office of the company in Turkey at that time.

Coşkun Deniz Temel
2009 - International Trade and Finance Graduate
My university life, which started at Izmir University of Economics in 2004, ended with my graduation in 2009. After completing my military service, I gained 1 year of commercial experience in the family business retail sector. To put into practice what university education has given me, I started to work as an import and export manager for 3 years in a company called Dirmak Makina in Izmir. At the end of 2013, I decided to move to Sweden to start a family. After 1 year of intensive Swedish language training, at the beginning of 2015, I started to work as an import export manager at Sydsvensk Form Reklam AB company, of which I am a 50% partner today.
