Assoc. Prof. Sema Misci Kip, Head of IUE Department of Public Relations and Advertising, reported that Haluk Mesci designed the students’ communication agency simulation for the first time. Assoc. Prof. Kip stated that Mesci along with Meriç Eryürek, Gözde Çeviker, and Barış Atilla ran the agency, and students worked at an agency atmosphere. Assoc. Prof. Kip said, “We had been running the communication agency simulation for last year students for four years. Genç Yaratıcı Communication Agency is a unique feature the other universities do not have. Students gain experience throughout the year as if they are working at an advertisement agency, and they graduate with that experience. It is more than an internship for them”.
