Within the scope of the European Excellence Initiative (EEI) project, our Vice Rector and Dean of Research, Prof. Dr. Kaan Orhan, held a productive meeting with Dr. Brendan Jennings, Vice President of Technological University Dublin (TU Dublin), on August 21, 2025. During this important meeting, the strategic action plans of our project were shaped, leading to significant progress. We extend our gratitude to TU Dublin for their valuable collaboration and warm hospitality.

As the Office of the Dean of Research, we took the first step toward transitioning to the digital education process by coming together with our external partners from whom we receive software services. Within the scope of this collaboration, we set out the roadmap for our future software-supported digital education initiatives, aiming to increase our research capacity and make the software we use accessible to wider audiences. We are grateful to our partners for their valuable collaboration.
