Description

Internship at MUUM… What was it like to do an architectural internship in an agile working environment? Experience of Emre.

Hello! I’m Emre Kalleci, a fourth-year architecture student at Istanbul Technical University. I had the opportunity to complete my internship at MUUM. I had already been following this firm closely, as they are very active in the industry, and I was always impressed by their designs. After thorough research, I decided to apply because of the valuable opportunities they offer to interns. From my very first visit, the warm and welcoming atmosphere caught my attention. At that moment, I knew I had to be part of this office—and eventually, I was.

I spent nearly four months at MUUM, and this period contributed a lot to my professional growth. To be honest, I never imagined that working could be this enjoyable. This internship was not just a learning experience for me, but also a memory that I will cherish. One of the aspects I appreciated the most was being involved in different stages of a project. I started with the design phase and later observed its transition into implementation. This hands-on experience allowed me to understand the architectural workflow step by step, making me feel like I contributed both to the team and my own development.

The office environment was one of the most enjoyable I’ve ever been part of. The strong team spirit, genuine friendships, and warm atmosphere made it a truly special place. As an intern, I had an amazing time filled with great conversations, laughter, and memorable moments.

If I had to describe MUUM in three words, I’d say: energetic, welcoming, and team-oriented.
