ABOUT US
The İZÜ Career Center was established to build career awareness among our students from their very first year at university, to help them develop their interests and abilities, and to guide them in planning their careers. Within this framework, career events such as CV writing workshops and interview simulations are held, while job and internship postings are shared with our students and graduates through the İZÜ online career portal. Ties with our graduates are also maintained through alumni breakfasts and the preparation of Graduate Employment Reports. In addition, the career planning course supports our students in shaping their career plans. Our vision is to train highly qualified graduate candidates with strong employability in Turkey and around the world, and to maintain our ties with our graduates.
