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.
Dilara Barut
2011 - Translation and Interpretation (English) Graduate
Izmir University of Economics was my dream university. Because in 2007 it was one of the rare universities that had translation booths. That's why it was my first choice. I didn't regret my decision at all when I came to the University. You can be sure that it is a university that breaks the perception of most of the people around as "Private university, you pay, and you graduate."
Yiğit Can Parıltı
2017 - Software Engineering Graduate
I went to the university with love and desire to learn, especially thanks to the support of my teacher Gazihan Alankuş and the projects we worked on together. Also, the courses helped me understand what is at the heart of software development and what I will face in my career path.
İlayda Çelik
2017 - Cinema and Digital Media Graduate
Utku Gürboğa
2009 - Mathematics Graduate
As of the summer of 2005, I was undecided between choosing a university in Istanbul or Izmir. I decided to choose a university in Izmir because I love the city I live in and thought that universities in Izmir could contribute a lot to my future career. When I started to research universities in Izmir, Izmir University of Economics had come to the fore both in terms of its teaching staff and its vision. In my meetings with IEU students at that time, I heard that everyone was extremely satisfied with the university.
