As part of its institutional vision, the Journalism Program aims to establish strategic and sustainable collaborations with the media industry. Accordingly, leading figures from the sector are invited to classes as guest speakers, facilitating a direct transfer of professional experience to students. The partnerships established with various media organizations and news agencies are the most critical elements reinforcing the application-oriented identity of the program.

The Graduation Project, the activities of the Istanbul Aydın News Agency (İAHA), and the Workplace Application courses—which enable students to specialize in real-world scenarios and sectoral challenges—are at the heart of these stakeholder relationships. These courses, conducted with the active involvement of industry representatives, allow students to build a professional network before graduation and acquire a professional skillset fully aligned with the dynamics of the business world.
