Bursa Uludağ University (BUÜ) R&D Coordination launched a new initiative to honor the most successful academics of each month with specially prepared achievement certificates in their names.
Ranked among the 23 research universities in Turkey and striving to rise to the top ranks in this list, BUÜ is organizing a special program for academics who contribute to the university through the projects they carry out. Each month, the most successful academics, based on measurements related to publications, projects, and patents, will be awarded achievement certificates in a ceremony. In the first program, certificates were presented by BUÜ Rector Prof. Dr. Ferudun Yılmaz to the faculty members for their contributions to the university.
"WE WILL UNLEASH OUR POTENTIAL"
Speaking at the meeting, Rector Prof. Dr. Ferudun Yılmaz said, "We have passed the psychological threshold in the research university ranking and moved to the next level, but this is certainly not enough. As BUÜ, I believe we should be above universities in our scale. We have the capacity to do this, and we are doing our best. Our R&D Coordination is working diligently. In essence, we have shaped the R&D Coordination of a research university and its institutional organization spreading underneath it. Now, all we have to do is activate our potential. Your efforts are very valuable for this. We want to showcase our scientific strength and your experience in the best way. In this context, I express our gratitude to all the academics who work hard and make an effort. I hope the number of successful academics will increase every month.
THE NUMBER OF SUCCESSFUL ACADEMICS WILL INCREASE
R&D Coordinator Prof. Dr. Esra Karaca pointed out that the new initiative they have implemented is also being carried out by other research universities, saying, "This initiative is one of the practices carried out by universities that are ranked among the top in the research university rankings. In our project, which we call the 'Successful Academics of the Month,' we track faculty members who have published Q1 articles or whose patents were registered during the month. Additionally, we also consider the leaders of externally funded projects, whose budgets have been allocated, apart from BAP. This month, we sent invitations to 21 of our faculty members due to their work. I hope this number will continue to grow."The meeting concluded after the presentation of achievement certificates to academics who stood out with their publications, projects, and patent works in January.
