Primary Research Topics

The basic framework and roadmap of our department's research strategy; Tübitak Energy creates a list of Priority Areas. In our department, while determining the subjects related to Undergraduate Project studies, Master's Seminar and Thesis studies, and PhD Seminar and Thesis studies, sensitivity is shown to be appropriate or very closely related to the titles in the list.

Another guiding element in our research strategy is; It is the list of Priority R&D and Innovation Issues within the scope of European Union Green Deal Harmonization. Attention is paid to prioritizing the issues related to energy/energy systems in this list.

In this direction, the titles for the priority research topics we have determined (but not limited to the ones written) are listed below:
