While trying to decide on the field where I can use my skills in the best way after the university exam, I saw the newspaper advertisement of Izmir University of Economics, Department of Software Engineering. I was very excited by the idea of developing my interest, which started when I first saw the black and white computer screen at the age of seven, by getting the right education. Our work, which we started with Kabaq.io in New York in 2015, continues today with our team of 25 people in Izmir Bilimpark Technopark, within the Glimpse Group, which is listed as VRAR on Nasdaq.

Metin Olataş
2015 - Psychology Graduate
I enrolled in the Department of Psychology with a full scholarship in 2011. In the summer semester of my 2nd year, I performed an internship abroad for 3 months at the youth center named JUVIVO9 in Vienna with the ERASMUS Internship mobility. After returning from Vienna, I started to do a double major in International Relations and European Union.
Sami Eyidilli
2017 - Distance Learning MBA without Thesis Graduate
I started MBA in the first year that Izmir University of Economics implemented distance education master's programs. Therefore, I am one of the first e-MBA students of our university to graduate. These investments made years ago in distance education give us a better understanding of its importance in the pandemic period we are in today. When I started my MBA, I was actively involved in business life and was living in Istanbul.
Ekrem Sözdinler
2017 - International Relations and European Union Graduate
It was one of the best decisions I made to start Izmir University of Economics - Department of International Relations and EU, my first choice, in 2012 with a 100% scholarship. My major gave me an international perspective and a wide range of cultures. I tried to be as active as possible throughout my university life. During my undergraduate education, I gained various internship experiences.
Simin Ercan
2012 - International Relations and European Union Graduate
I stepped into Izmir University of Economics in 2002 for the first time. I dropped out of school in 2004 due to unexpected sad events. I returned to school in 2009 at the insistence of my family. During this time, I got married and became a mother. Everyone except me believed I could graduate, but I was caught between motherhood and being a student. Then I decided what I really wanted. I was very happy to be a part of Izmir University of Economics.
