They got their diplomas, but did not forget Izmir University of Economics
UNIAR conducted the study, titled “Graduate Satisfaction in Popular Programs,” based on data collected through online surveys from graduates of undergraduate programs. The survey consisted of four parts: ‘Sense of Belonging’, ‘Effect of Undergraduate Education on Employment’, ‘Applicability of Education in Professional Life’, and ‘Willingness to Recommend the University’. These four sections were then combined to calculate a ‘General Satisfaction Score’, and universities were ranked accordingly among the top 15.
At the national level, IUE’s Faculty of Medicine and Department of Visual Communication Design ranked 4th, Departments of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation and Interior Architecture and Environmental Design ranked 6th, Department of Nursing ranked 7th, Department of Political Science and International Relations ranked 9th, and Departments of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Economics, and Law ranked 10th. While the Department of Psychology secured 11th place, Department of Architecture came in 12th. In the Aegean Region, the Faculty of Medicine, Departments of Law, Visual Communication Design, Political Science and International Relations, Nursing, and Interior Architecture and Environmental Design were all ranked first.
“A GOOD HOME, A LIFE GUIDE”
Emphasizing that they are a university that graduates speak of with pride and remember fondly, Rector Prof. Dr. Yusuf Hakan Abacıoğlu said, “This achievement is the result of our academic staff’s dedication, our innovative approach to education, and the strong career support we provide to our students. In line with our vision of raising future leaders, we will continue working tirelessly to further improve our quality and ensure that our students are fully equipped in every aspect. Every graduate is a living part of this University. I find these results very valuable in demonstrating how IUE serves as not just a school, but also a nurturing home and life guide.”
“IUE DIPLOMA HAS DISTINCTION”
Prof. Dr. Abacıoğlu continued as follows: “At our University, we don’t just teach lessons. We also teach our students a stance toward life. We instill inquiry, creativity, and sharing. These are invaluable steps toward ensuring our graduates are successful and reach their career goals. Our graduates experience firsthand in professional life the distinct advantages provided by an IUE diploma and the difference made by the education they received on campus. These are the foundations of the widespread satisfaction with our University.”
