Kadir Has University Ranks Among the Top in TÜBİTAK 1001 Program!

We are proud to announce that Kadir Has University has achieved yet another milestone in research excellence.

According to the results of the 2025 First Term of TÜBİTAK’s 1001 Scientific and Technological Research Projects Support Program, our university ranked among the top five foundation universities in terms of the number of funded research projects. More notably, we secured a place among the top three universities in Turkey based on the number of funded projects per faculty member.

This outstanding performance is a testament to our research-oriented vision, academic productivity, and the supportive ecosystem we provide for emerging scholars.

Our Rector, Prof. Dr. Sondan Durukanoğlu Feyiz, emphasized the significance of this achievement with the following remarks:

“In line with our research university vision, we prioritize not only academic publications but also project development. These funded projects are not limited to faculty members alone—our undergraduate and graduate students are actively involved as well. By encouraging students to take early responsibility in research processes, we are equipping them to become the R&D experts, academics, and industry professionals of the future.”

At Kadir Has University, we embrace a project-based approach and promote a culture of interdisciplinary collaboration. The projects developed in partnership across faculties are designed to contribute meaningfully to both the academic community and the broader industry.

With a strong focus on national and international research priorities, robust infrastructure, and a highly qualified academic team, we continue to strengthen our identity as a “university that produces” in every sense.
