Student Research
Qualified thesis advisors, qualified research opportunities, easy access to research opportunities, career development opportunities, scholarship opportunities, international research experience opportunities and innovation ecosystem and techno parks opportunities are gradually increasing each year. With the consideration of the scientific performance of all scientists who started to work within the institute being above the world average, the quality of the faculty is increased and it is made attractive for graduate students. Izmir Institute of Technology is one of the universities that receives the most TUBITAK project per faculty member. In ongoing TUBITAK projects, students are provided with scholarships.
The institute has very important testing and analysis instruments especially in the field of Science and engineering. Some of these devices have been obtained from projects from the Ministry of Development, others from TUBITAK, EU and similar institutions. Increasing the number of projects also strengthens the research infrastructure.
In research centers with important analysis and test devices, all researchers apply to the relevant Center for analysis and test services without distinction of student and faculty members.
In order to facilitate commercialization of the valuable information produced by graduate and doctoral students, the institute encourages them to establish a company in Teknopark Izmir, apply for support programs and receive the necessary training.
Teknopark established a strong link between Izmir and IZTECH, especially in the field of postgraduate education. In this sense, the training/consultancy and other facilities provided to graduate students under Teknopark have become an important factor for the preference of IZTECH in graduate education. Teknopark provides graduate students with the opportunity to apply for the Teknopark free of charge during the establishment process, the opportunity to have a low-paid or free office, the right to use all kinds of sub-and superstructure and the support of education and mentoring in various subjects, encouraging graduate students to establish a company in Teknopark.
