I started my education at Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering in Izmir University of Economics in 2012. In my first year, I finished the preparatory program in half a semester and participated in a volunteer internship program in OMSK, Russia, where I taught English to young children. I performed one-month internships in summer in laboratories.
Nehir Emine Kurşun
2013 - Fashion Design Graduate
After a long research, in 2008, Izmir University of Economics became my only choice, considering the opportunities it provided such as "double major, diploma with international validity, medium of instruction being English and compulsory second foreign language education". I have successfully graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, Department of Fashion Design as an honour student, and from the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Department of Psychology in 2013 with full scholarship.

Büşra Kırmızıoğlu
2009 - Public Relations and Advertising Graduate
Immediately after graduating with honors in 2009, I completed my academic education in 2011, which I continued at a postgraduate degree in Istanbul. I gained professional experience for 3 years in different advertising and PR agencies in Istanbul. As a result of my application to the lecturing staff opened by YOK in the Rectorate of Pamukkale University in 2017, I was entitled to work as a Public Relations Specialist in this institution. I have been working as the Director of Press and Public Relations since 2019 at the institution where I am still working. Since the very beginning of my career, the most important fact that I learned during my education at Izmir University of Economics and which sheds light on me is the fact that as long as the information was conveyed to people with a correct communication method, that information provided a benefit beyond the meaning acknowledged by the next generation.
