I got into Izmir University of Economics Faculty of Communication, Department of Media and Communication with full scholarship, as my first choice in 2006. Almost everyone around me asked why I did not choose another school in Istanbul, that I would get into that school anyway. I never wanted to leave Izmir and I think the best place to get education in Izmir was Izmir University of Economics.

2010 - Business Administration Graduate
When I think back about my life since the day I took the first step at Izmir University of Economics as a student, I always remember the importance of that first step. When I started my education in the Department of Business Administration in 2005, I knew that there was a lot I wanted to do with my interest and enthusiasm, but when I look back now, I did not imagine this much. I think that I spent my undergraduate years as actively as possible, as I decided to spend a period of my education in France with the Erasmus Student Exchange program in the preparatory class.

Baran Ölekli
2012 - Public Relations and Advertising Graduate
When I entered Izmir University of Economics in 2007, where the medium of instruction is English, my English level was not at the beginner level. Thanks to the English Preparatory Program at Izmir University of Economics School of Foreign Languages, I successfully completed the English preparatory class in 1 year. In 2011, we visited leading advertising agencies and Corporate Communications units of corporate companies in Istanbul, which is the center of the media, communication and advertising sectors, within the scope of the industry trip in the 3rd grade. I had the opportunity to meet professionals in Istanbul and sent my resume for internship application.
