  • Founder at Bilkent Resources
    Jan 2020 - Nov 2022 · 2 yrs 11 mos

    New to the electrical and electronics engineering field and its curriculum, I frequently found myself around seniors asking for advice and useful literature to perform well in courses. Upon close inspection, I recognized that this is something that most students do. Therefore, I decided to create a platform that gives tips and insights into some courses offered at Bilkent University. The effort has been met with a warm response by the Bilkent community who continues to contribute to the platform with valuable educational resources.
