Science and Advanced Technology Application and Research Center (BİLTAM)

Hello. I am Assoc. Prof. Mehmet Fatih HOCAOĞLU, the director of the Science and Advanced Technology Application and Research Center (BİLTAM) at Istanbul Medeniyet University. BİLTAM was established in 2017 as a separate building with a total area of 20,000 square meters and 6 floors. Its main purpose is to conduct research in various fields, including medicine and engineering, as well as interdisciplinary areas such as nanotechnology and biotechnology. It serves as a series of laboratories for research and development, production improvement, and research improvement in both current and interdisciplinary technologies. BİLTAM was established to carry out research and development activities within the scope of projects led by university faculty members, as well as to provide a platform for experiments, testing, analysis, and reporting that is open to industry, other public institutions, and universities. Currently, BİLTAM operates within this framework. Researchers, both from the industry and from public institutions, as well as those working in faculties and research units at our university, can benefit from BİLTAM, provided that their work is project-based and has received project support. As Istanbul Medeniyet University, we provide significant support to BİLTAM's students by offering office and research infrastructure for their TÜBİTAK-supported projects or projects supported by fairs and technology exhibitions. This enables students to engage in individual and group project work under the supervision of their professors, throughout their academic life and during their final projects. It provides them with valuable opportunities to plan, implement, report, and achieve project outcomes, which are important gains throughout their student life. We wish success to all students who will take the university entrance exam. We encourage them to learn more about Istanbul Medeniyet University and its activities and invite them to join our university.
