Graphic Design

I'm Tolga Akın Özbudak. I'm 20 years old. I am a second-year student at Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University, studying in the Department of Graphic Design. My department is located in the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture. The purpose of our department is to teach how to convey messages in any shape or form. The fact that it becomes much more efficient in terms of art and design plays an important factor in giving the desired message to the other party. We have workshop courses. The courses are design-oriented and the programs are based on learning. We have theoretical courses for so we can accumulate knowledge. We have two laboratories. One is the pattern lab and the other is the MAC lab. We have two more laboratories under construction. Since our department has just opened, there is a lack of laboratories at the moment. But our university makes up for it with its other features. We do not have a compulsory internship and we have a graduation project. We prepare a portfolio, this portfolio consists of the works we have completed in a year so that we can find a job and work in jobs that require more experience. It is purely done so that students can find jobs easier. My department is multidisciplinary. I can start with printing and photography and switch to many fields such as art design, photography design, game design, web design, editing, and motion graphics. I always thought that my design skills are superior to my other skills. I had a goal and this department was a key to my goal. For this purpose, I chose this department. I recommend that everyone has a goal of their own and chooses a department accordingly. The geographical location of Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University is great, it is easy to commute everywhere. There is a train, there is IDO (İstanbul Sea Bus), and there is transportation at the bus terminal. The university staff satisfies our current needs. It is a university that supports students and has technological infrastructure. It is a university for the new generation of students. That's why I chose Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University. Workshops are very important to us and we can use the workshops whenever we want. If where you work is close to bed, you won’t complete your tasks. That's why we often use workshops. We can contact our lecturers at any time and they respond very quickly, they also help us even after class. That's why we can take advantage of these facilities. After graduation, I want to open my own agency. I want to be employed in a position related to my department and be both the foundation designer and manager of this agency. My suggestions to candidates who will choose our university and department are as follows. I suggest you get to know yourself first. Managing art, design and technology at the same time is no easy task. Anyone can design, but not everyone can be a designer. I wish good luck to the students who will take the university exam. I welcome everyone to Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University. All of you are welcome here.
