Now, I am officially an INDUSTRIAL ENGINEER 😍🎉
Proudly, I have been awarded the Golden Brain of BAU, received the award from the Secretary General of South Africa's ANC Dr. Ace Magashule, Chairman of BAU Board of Trustees Mr. Enver Yücel and President of BAU Prof. Şenay Yalçın.
I delivered the valedictory speech at the ceremony to more than 20,000 people with a great delight.

As I addressed the graduating class: "When we started Bahcesehir University, we were all sparks. We have been raised as pioneers to increase the welfare and happiness of our country and the people of the world. And now, we, as blazing flames, will chase our dreams, goals, and ideals!"
I am so glad that I had the chance to be admitted to BAU four years ago on ApplyBAU's merit based full scholarship. As I said during my valedictory speech, "Bahcesehir University has always been more than a university for me". BAU is a vigorous and ambitious institution that has an international vision. Being a student at BAU and experiencing its multicultural and dynamic atmosphere was highly inspirational to an individual like me, who aims to pursue a global management and marketing career. I had four fantastic years at BAU, full of academic and extracurricular accomplishments. I am grateful to my professors, friends and family. 💗
My lovely parents accompanied me to the event 😍
Very fortunately, I was his student assistant and junior researcher, worked on career studies and management practices. Furthermore, he was the one that recommended me to our CO-OP department to be chosen as the first student at BAU to initiate a one-to-one CEO reverse mentoring program. Dear Prof. Tunç Bozbura and his close colleague Dear Prof. Ahmet Beşkese—the Director of BAU Industrial Engineering and my precious academic advisor—have been fantastic masters and mentors to me. I have always felt their support. And I am so lucky that I had a great chance to become a follower of their management school and approach. In particular, I have gained a world-class understanding of the importance of intellectual capital from them.
And with my dears—Berfin and Kagan 💕 During the ceremony, my all precious friends came to congratulate me and shared my happiness. They made me feel again that's what friends are for ☺️🥰
