Hasan Kalyoncu University (HKU) Technology Transfer Office (KALİTTO) and the TÜBİTAK Research Support Programmes Directorate (ARDEB) held an information seminar for academics and researchers on the “3005 – Innovative Solutions in Social and Human Sciences Research Projects” support programme, with a budget of TL 300,000.
At the seminar, held online by video conference, TÜBİTAK-ARDEB Specialist Yeliz Omuzlu Aksoy informed participants about the details of the 3005 programme.
The Quadruple Helix Collaboration Approach Has Been Strengthened
Speaking at the opening of the seminar, HKU Vice Rector Prof. Dr. Mehmet Lütfi Yola said: “The contributions of the social and human sciences are needed in every field concerning social systems, and especially in resolving systemic difficulties in line with sustainable development. With COVID-19, the contributions based on the social and human sciences, and the quadruple helix collaboration approach that includes the university, industry, the public sector and society, have been strengthened. In this context, it is observed that over the years both the number of applications and the level of support received by our university in TÜBİTAK applications have increased. I believe that with this information seminar we held on the TÜBİTAK-ARDEB 3005 programme, applications in the social and human sciences will increase even further.”
Annual Project Budget of TL 300,000
Stating that ARDEB acts as a bridge between research groups and universities, public institutions and organisations, and natural and legal persons, TÜBİTAK-ARDEB Specialist Yeliz Omuzlu Aksoy said: “The aim is to establish scientific foundations in the processes of developing public policies, through the findings of the human sciences’ situation assessment studies based on data collection and analysis, and through the development of methods, approaches and interpretations that will make innovative contributions to science in light of those findings. In addition, by supporting output- and impact-oriented social and human sciences research and development activities structured to reveal the social effects of technological advances, the aim is to provide social and public benefit in our country. Although the project duration is a maximum of 24 months, the upper limit of project support in the 3005 programme is TL 300,000, without an annual budget limitation.”
