“We believe this protocol will contribute to Samsun”

Rector Ünal, who made evaluations at the protocol signing ceremony held at the Rectorate Senate Hall of Ondokuz Mayıs University, said, "This cooperation will be a horizon for our students. It will be a valuable start regarding going out on the field and working experience or meeting with the sector. The institutional experience of Hampton by Hilton will enable our students to grow up more qualified and thus to be employed in more serious institutions within institutionalized structures. At the same time, the cooperation has been another start for the region, both health tourism and normal tourism, as well as a congress culture and congress tourism that we have added. We think this meeting here will bear very serious fruits in the coming time and will also contribute to Samsun."

“It is essential to be in contact with young people”

Tuğba Korkmaz, Manager of Hampton by Hilton Samsun Hotel, in her speech at the protocol signing ceremony, said, "It is essential that sectors such as tourism are intertwined with students and young people. Because when we look at it, we are not just a department where we evaluate the results of the exams on paper or with the scores you get. It is a part of the operation that we need to be in. We must be intertwined with the sector and be in contact with you, valuable teachers, and young people. I think this process and the signatures will be an excellent start. Thank you very much to all of you."
