I always worked hard to reach more information and put exemplary studies into practice. I shared what I learnt with my students because I believe that knowledge improves as it is shared. I acted upon this belief, and I will continue to do so. I felt great honor for internationally recognized scholars coming together at a conference held in my honor. I felt very excited. I would like to thank Izmir University of Economics for supporting me and providing all the opportunities until now, “said Prof. Bayramoğlu.
