They had a firsthand experience of media world at our high tech studios. They enjoyed learning. They had a chance to experience campus life, to meet senior students and exquisite faculty members. We wanted to ease the process of choosing for their future professions. We plan to reach out to more high school students in Izmir in the future.”
