Project: An Original Blended Curriculum Design to Increase the Research Capacity of  Undergraduate and Graduate Students, 2021-2022
This project was internally funded by Ege University for two years, with the primary goal of enhancing the research capacity of undergraduate and graduate students. We established a Student Innovation Center, organized events and information sessions about the Turkish Research Foundation, and explained the call for proposals. We also created a mentor-mentee program, pairing students interested in research with expert professors. My role involved helping to manage the mentor-mentee program and presenting our Innovation Center to the university community and other universities.
