Izmir University of Economics Information Technologies Hackathon Event
Izmir University of Economics IT Hackathon was held on December 21-22, 2024 with the participation of 22 of our students within the scope of the university's "Create in Izmir" EU Project.
The event aims to develop IUE students' skills in producing solutions to real problems using technology, to support a culture of collaboration and innovation, and to contribute to the vision of sustainable digital transformation within IUE.
In the event, IUE students worked on pre-determined case titles and produced innovative projects and solution proposals. In mentoring sessions, they received guidance from experts on case analyses, project development, prototyping, and effective presentation techniques. Participants collaborated in teams to develop digital prototypes and presented their projects to the expert jury.
Deniz Yetiş, Ecem Doğaner, Fatih Anamaslı, and Ali Berat Akoğlu, 3rd-year students of IUE Software Engineering, were deemed worthy of the first place award at the end of the jury evaluation. Our students contributed to sustainable digital transformation with their work titled "Debugger Ducs". They received their awards from IUE Vice Rector Prof. Dr. They took it from Aslı Ceylan Öner.
