project support services

 

KTU TTC enhances researchers’ interest and demand for utilizing various national and international funding sources and provides support in transforming research ideas into projects. In doing so, it increases the number of national and international projects the university benefits from and strengthens its research infrastructure.

 

Monitoring of Current Calls and Matching with Academics for Suitable Projects

Current project and grant calls under national and international support programs are regularly monitored and shared with researchers. Based on the thematic areas specified in the calls, researcher scans are conducted, and compatible researchers are engaged through desk meetings, email notifications, academic visits, and thematic group meetings.

Guiding Researchers to Suitable Funding Sources

Within the scope of researchers’ project ideas and needs, suitable regional, national, and international funding sources (TÜBİTAK, TUSEB, Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, etc.) are identified, and researchers are guided accordingly.

Pre-Evaluation and Editing of Project Applications

Written project proposals submitted by researchers are reviewed, and suggestions and comments for necessary improvements and corrections are provided. This process contributes to making applications stronger and more competitive.

Technical Support in the Project Preparation Process

Researchers are supported in idea development, project preparation and enhancement, budgeting, partner search and consortium building, as well as submission processes to national, regional, and international funding portals.

Implementation of Internationalization Strategies

To support researchers’ access to international funding sources and their participation in collaboration networks, mentorship is provided for application processes to international programs such as Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, TÜBİTAK, and COST Actions. In addition, project development trainings are organized, and partner search platforms are regularly monitored to encourage participation in international consortia.

Administrative Support and Consultancy

Comprehensive administrative support and consultancy are provided to university researchers during the implementation of their national and international projects. This service contributes to ensuring that project management processes progress effectively and smoothly.
