The TÜBİTAK Department of Science, Technology and Innovation Policies has published the "Field-Based Competency Analysis of Universities 2020" report. According to the report, Bahçeşehir University (BAU) ranked above average in both quality and publication volume in Particle and Nuclear Physics, Broadband Technology, Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things, Business, Robotics, Law, Energy Efficiency, Biomedical Equipment Technologies, Modeling and Simulation, Neuroscience and Brain, Sociology and Big Data, leaving large and long-established universities behind in inter-university comparisons.

The report, which comparatively evaluates the performance of universities operating in Türkiye by research area, also makes it possible to analyze in which of all the research areas a university works in it is relatively more competent. The report is also prepared to support data-driven decision-making in various critical processes such as setting national policies, regional plans and institutional strategies.

Great Success in the Core Field of Information and Communication Technologies

BAU stands out in the report for its success in the core field of Information and Communication Technologies. Along with the many initiatives it has carried out within the university, several factors play an important and accelerating role in this success: opening Türkiye's first master's program in Artificial Intelligence Engineering, delivering its education in collaboration with universities such as Stanford University, the source of technology, and Northeastern University, a pioneer in the Internet of Things, and developing virtual laboratories, all kinds of technological work, and projects and solutions for creating innovative products.
