Gazi Caner Tekin
2012 - International Relations and European Union Graduate
When I first stepped into Izmir University of Economics in 2007 I said to myself “What am I doing here?” One of the main reasons for that was the fact that I was a professional football player at Manisaspor Club, then known as Vestel Manisaspor. I got transferred to Ispartaspor after an accident, and when I came back I took a dislike to football due to some events I witnessed. I always felt a little remorseful because of leaving football because I was going to have a totally different life. Izmir Economics was the newest of my new life…

2010 - Industrial Design Graduate
I graduated from Design Management Option, Department of Industrial Design, Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, Izmir University of Economics in 2010. Thanks to the design management option available only at my university in our country, learning not only the creativity side of the design but also the business world side of it made me very competitive in the labor market. So much so that I can think as a business administrator, a marketer and a public relations specialist and communicate with them in a technical sense, thanks to the interdisciplinary lessons we have studied and friends from different departments I met in these courses.
