We have moved this service to the digital environment. Our Faculty of Agriculture is the most integrated faculty with the companies in the region. We have become a university that ranks in vaccine studies, pharmaceutical production and TUBITAK projects. We allocated 30 million TL in scientific research projects last year, and we expect this figure to exceed 50 million TL this year. We create these by using public resources efficiently. We pay attention to transfer more resources to scientific research by coordinating the financial policy properly."
