I have studied economics at Yildiz Technical University in Istanbul. During my four years there, learned about the fascinating history of economics from Malthus’s grave prediction about the increasing population ending the world as we know it (Spoiler: It didn’t) to Adam Smith’s “Invisible hand” to Marx’s proletariat revolution.
It wasn’t all about history; I learned about modern economic theories, law, statistics and econometrics, and some sociology. Although I have never worked in economics or finance, I am still very interested in social sciences.
