Curriculum Vitae
Sezgin Cihangir was born on March 6th 1975, in Ankara, Turkey. Here he went to the high school Ankara Cumhuriyet Lisesi, which he left without a diploma in 1991.
September 7th 1993 was the day that Sezgin arrived in the Netherlands, with nothing but a dream to earn a lot of money and drive a big Mercedes back to Turkey. His life changed drastically when he decided to go to study in order to settle
down in the Netherlands. After completing the necessary tests (colloquium doctum), he began his study Psychology in 1996 at the Free University in Amsterdam.
For his Master Thesis, Sezgin lived in Brisbane, Australia, for 6 months, where he conducted an experimental research at the University of Queensland under supervision of Prof. dr. Jolanda Jetten and Prof. dr. Tom Postmes. This research resulted in a Master Thesis titled: “The effects of social identity salience on social influence”, with which he received his Master’s degree in Social Psychology in 2002. Soon after, Sezgin started his PhD training at the Leiden University under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Naomi Ellemers and Dr. Manuela Barreto on a part of the project: “Perception of contemporary forms of prejudice and discrimination”, which resulted in this dissertation.
Sezgin is currently working as a researcher at the department of Quality and Safety at Prismant, where he conducts research on quality indicators for hospitals, and the role of intergroup relations within the health care system.
