Berat Göktuğ Özdemir

From his student years, Göktuğ stood out as an exceptionally energetic, curious, and productive student. He developed a mobile application that was widely used across the university, turning students’ everyday problems into practical solutions. I also had the opportunity to supervise his graduation thesis, where I witnessed his strong interest in programming, operating systems, and computer networks. He participated actively in class, asked thoughtful questions, and consistently sought to apply what he learned. We continued exchanging knowledge and professional experience after he began his career, and we remain in contact today. I am proud of the accomplished engineer he has become and am pleased to recommend him for his technical competence, initiative, and solution-oriented approach.

We had the chance to work together on projects at Yalova University's IT Department for a year and a half. On Göktuğ's recommendation, we were able to bring a number of new technologies into our project. The mobile and web applications he developed showed us his ability many times over. He was a valued employee and student, and I knew he would graduate having done justice to computer engineering. His entrepreneurial side added real value to the projects we worked on together. He has a strong instinct for building new things, and he consistently pursued both novelty and maximum performance in his work. I have no doubt he will succeed in the years ahead, and I am glad to give a reference for a colleague whose personal and professional development is at this level.

Throughout his studies, his academic and social performance across a range of courses was above average. His consistent care over project and assignment submissions, together with his participation in class, set him apart from other students. I see his willing involvement in activities outside coursework as an important asset for the career path he has chosen. The mobile application he developed for our students gave a clear picture of his creativity, work ethic, and drive. I am confident that Berat Göktuğ Özdemir will show the same success in his professional life, and that his communication skills will be one of the most important assets on the path he has chosen. I am glad to recommend him.

Göktuğ completed his 2018 summer internship at our company successfully. He was not content simply to finish the tasks he was given; he brought his own ideas to us and delivered a currency parity application with considerable success. He stood out for how he communicated within the organisation and for his work ethic, and his aptitude for teamwork and sense of responsibility were both high. We offered to keep working with him on a part-time basis, but his coursework and projects meant we could not work together at that stage. He has the potential to add real value wherever he is through his energy and creativity, so my reference for him is unreserved.
