The ceremony was also attended by Ömür Erdem Çelik, General Coordinator of REPİD, and Dilhan Kolko, General Coordinator of the Advertisers Association of Turkey.
“We are investing in the future of our students”
In his speech at the signing ceremony, Istinye University Rector Prof. Dr. Erkan İbiş emphasized the university’s collaboration-oriented approach:
“Universities are not only institutions that generate knowledge but also transform this knowledge into value for their students and society. Through these protocols, we aim to provide our students with opportunities to draw a stronger roadmap in the sector. Our collaborations with the Advertisers Association of Turkey and REPİD will not only contribute to the professional development of our students but also serve as a bridge between the sector and the university. We will continue to stand by our young people who will shape the future.”
Sectoral Opportunities for Students
Within the framework of these collaborations, Istinye University students will gain access to practical training, internship opportunities, and direct engagement with sector professionals. In this way, they will be able to apply the knowledge they acquire during their studies in real-life settings, taking stronger steps into their careers after graduation.
A New Step in University–Industry Cooperation
The collaborations established by Istinye University with the Advertisers Association of Turkey and REPİD stand out as a concrete example of university–industry cooperation. With this step, the university aims to make a significant contribution to preparing students for the professional world and meeting the sector’s demand for qualified talent.
