Students will be able to visit the university until August 20, 2021, on the selection and promotion days of Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU) Faculty of Fine Arts (FAF) that started on July 28, 2021. An interview was held with Rahnaz Sönmez, a 4th-grade student of the Department of Communication and Design, who was on duty during the selection and recognition days.
1-Hello Rahnaz. What do you think about the department lecturers offering you an offer to take part in the promotion days? Can we learn why you want to take part in such a responsible task?
First of all, I would like to thank my teachers for making me participate in such an event. Thanks to them, we, as the preference promotion team, had the opportunity to get to know our school, departments, and each other better and socialize. This is exactly why I wanted to be part of the team.
2- Can you share your experiences in this process?
We welcome dozens of student candidates and parents during the day, which means dozens of different perspectives. While informing, we are informed, and best of all, we witness their sweet rush. We chat about the episode and share ideas. While the candidates learn what the truth is, we fill in the missing parts. I can say that new people are the best experience that provides new opportunities for us.
3- What do your department and university mean to you?
As a 4th year student in Communication and Design department, I can say that it may be the best choice I have made in the department. Thanks to the interest of our teachers and the opportunities provided by our school, I spent 3 years of quality. We welcome our students who are interested in digital design and production, who are interested in choosing the department, and who want to improve in this field, to our Communication and Design Department at IGU Faculty of Fine Arts. In the meantime, I would like to thank my friend Gülben Alkan for her support both in the classroom and in the team.
4- What would be your most important advice to our candidates?
Unfortunately, for me, reading school is not the same as the knowledge that a book adds by looking at its appearance and throwing it aside, like reading a guide or a book, and using the information gained by underlining the sentences and using it, unfortunately. So the biggest job here is up to the reader, how you want to read is your choice. They should use all kinds of opportunities, participate in every activity, stay in touch with the teachers and their friends at all times, and most importantly, should not be afraid to wonder and ask. I wish success to our prospective students in their education life.
We would like to thank our dear student Rahnaz. We wish you continued success.
