3 BS Alumni

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.

Atacan (CE) is currently working in the field of 3D Building Modeling and Project Management. Shortly after starting the university, he became interested in the visual-based project management methods of the construction sector, he developed his modeling skills on 3D building modeling, both in his spare time and computer-aided technical drawing lessons that he took at the university, and decided to work in his professional life on the usage and purposes of these models. He tried to use his 3D modeling and visual thinking skills in different areas of his life and also in different courses and projects he took at the university. He carried his 3D modeling skills to his hobbies and created a fun occupation for himself by taking prints with 3D printers. Later, he even carried this knowledge to his graduation project and wrote his thesis on 3D Concrete Printers and Concrete Mortar Properties.

His professional life has been in the field of Building Information Modeling, construction project management, document and business process management, 3D model supported cost calculations, business plans and conflict analysis, etc. He started working on methods. He is actively working as BIM (Building Information Modeling) Models.

Seyma Gürel graduated with honors from the Department of Civil Engineering in Özyeğin University in 2018. Seyma dedicated herself to her research career that began during her undergraduate studies with Dr. Zeynep Başaran Bundur. At Özyeğin University, Seyma worked as a research assistant and received a TÜBİTAK scholarship while still an undergraduate, contributing to projects focused on self-healing concrete and the improvement of concrete rheology using bacteria.After completing her undergraduate studies, Seyma decided to further pursue her interest in construction materials by enrolling in a Master's program in materials engineering. She was accepted into the Mechanical Engineering master's program at Koç University, where she continued her research on high-entropy alloys.

Upon completing her master's degree, Seyma proceeded to pursue a Ph.D. at ETH Zurich's Department of Civil Engineering, continuing her academic career. Currently, she is conducting research on digital concrete production at ETH Zurich. Throughout her educational journey, Seyma actively participated in various student clubs. Alongside other founding friends at Özyeğin University, she established a volunteer club, leading various aid projects and providing support to sister schools.
