İstinye University Career Center aims to empower students and graduates to become active participants in their own career development journey by offering a holistic perspective on their career development processes.

Career Counseling is a professional guidance process that enables individuals to:

  • Acquire sectoral knowledge and are directed to appropriate education, internship, and job opportunities.
