On 4 November 2026, Armona Denizcilik was pleased to participate in the 30th Traditional Career Days at Istanbul Technical University (İTÜ), an opportunity to engage with students preparing to build their careers in the maritime industry.
Representing the company were Özhan Kaya, Marine and Compliance Manager; Batuhan Taş, Senior Crewing Superintendent; and Patricia Ysabel Araza, Welfare Officer & HSEQ Coordinator. Together, they shared their professional experiences, introduced students to Armona's operations and provided insights into the opportunities and responsibilities that come with a career at sea and ashore.
During the presentation, students learned about Armona's international maritime operations, its fleet of 10 vessels, including three MR tankers, and the company's approach to technical management, crewing and safe vessel operations. The session also highlighted Armona's commitment to internationally recognized management standards through its ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certifications, alongside its sustainability initiatives and responsible maritime practices.
Beyond the operational aspects, the discussion explored the importance of professional development, teamwork, safety awareness and the diverse career paths available within the maritime sector. Students were also introduced to Armona's vision and mission, followed by an interactive question-and-answer session that encouraged open dialogue and the exchange of ideas.
At Armona Denizcilik, we believe that sharing industry knowledge and engaging with future maritime professionals are important contributions to the continued development of our sector. Opportunities such as İTÜ's Career Days help bridge the gap between academic learning and professional practice, while encouraging the next generation to approach their careers with confidence, responsibility and a commitment to continuous improvement.
We extend our sincere appreciation to Istanbul Technical Universit for the kind invitation and warm welcome, and to the students for their interest, thoughtful questions and enthusiastic participation.
We look forward to further opportunities to connect with young maritime professionals and contribute to a safer, more responsible and sustainable maritime industry.
