During the visit, North Cyprus Turkcell Engineer and EMU graduate Tayfun Atısoy gave information about the facility.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dimililer said, “Occupational technical visits are helping the students for learning the recent applications at the related sector. Also, one of the biggest advantages is the education they receive and the skills they gather from the university and they will be used when they start their business life. This increases the motivation of our students and accordingly, their success. These types of visits also raise the awareness of the students for selecting the area that they will specialize in.”
