Mark Your Calendar for Personal Development Days 2013

February 11 to March 2 will be devoted to the second part of Career Days: the ninth annual Personal Development Program. The program is targeted at giving students practical knowledge about the professional field in which they plan to work and informing them about how they can improve their skills. Personal Development Days is a series of workshops and lectures given by well-known and highly successful representatives of a wide variety of professions, including Ahmet Şerif İzgören, Tolga Çandar, Mehmet Kocabaş, Prof. Bülent Çaplı, Levent Ülgen, Dr. Merih Tangün, Serdar Lale, Vedat Erol and many others. Students in all years and departments can attend. All of the lectures will be in Turkish.

The lectures require no prior registration unless you are taking GE250. The schedule can be obtained from the Career Center in the Student Union Office or online at www.kariyer.bilkent.edu.tr. There will also be an outdoor activity, orienteering, which requires registration. You can register by calling ext. 2624 or 2486. Space is available on a first-come, first-served basis, so register as soon as possible.

Also, as an extra stimulus, all of the lectures and workshops are assigned points. When you attend, you collect these points and can become eligible to receive the awards given at the end of the program, including certificates, a free trip to the Gaziantep Zeugma Mosaic Museum and free passes to the play "Diary of a Madman."

All the seminars are credited for GE250. Visit https://stars.bilkent.edu.tr/ge250/login for details.
