Fatmanur (CE) graduated in 2020 as a Civil Engineer. During her Özyeğin journey, she participated in many domestic and international projects. She played a role in the establishment of the Fine Arts Club. At the same time, she was on the Board of Directors of the Construction Club for a while. When she was in second year, she participated in the Earthquake Resistant Building Design Competition organized by American Earthquake Engineering Research Institute. Being the team captain in the competition made me interested in Project Management.

She became a research assistant in three different areas of her interest. Her goal is to specialize in project management. While she was at university, she voluntarily studied Construction Cases at Kartal Anatolian Courthouse because of interest in contract management. Currently she is working as Consultant at the Department of Urban Rail Systems at the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure. She works on the management and control of rail systems projects in our country.

She (EE) received her undergraduate and Master of Science degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Özyeğin University. She is now a Ph.D. student at the Institute of Physics at Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz with her research in quantum computing and processors. She has always been curious to explore and understand the universe because just what we saw was not enough. As a result, she found myself becoming a scientist. She has seen theoretical objects which are common in different fields. Also, an important step in her journey was to learn algorithmic thinking which came with an object-oriented programming training.

I have always tried to understand physical correspondences of theoretical objects and wondered about transitions from theoretical formulations to experimental implementations. She had the opportunity to research in the field of underwater optical wireless communications and quantum key distribution. She had a chance to publish articles, join collaborations and patent her works.

Taha (CS), had participated various projects during his studies in Özyeğin University. He was a member of an agent, which had 1st rank in Automated Negotiating Agents Competition (ANAC). He had his PhD program in Southampton University in artificial intelligence and trust understanding of data with full scholarship.

He is working under the project, TUnDRA: Trust Understanding of Data and Reasoning Algorithms, which is funded by UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), covers topics around robust and discrete optimization techniques. He also worked on CyPrIAAn: Cyber Predictive Intelligence for Asset-based Analytics, which allow cyber analysts to predict both future attacks and the next steps of evolving cyber-attacks under UK Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA) funding. After his PhD, he kept working in these projects and he had the chance to present his works in the international conferences. 

In 2022, Taha started wo work in an international investment bank, Goldman Sachs as a data engineer. He is working to increase the efficiency of the customers using artificial intelligence techniques in manufacturing and industrial areas with a UK based start up
