University Industry Collaboration
UIC is not social responsibility issue UIC is not accomplished for personal curiosity UIC
Should be considered as a business Should create win-win solutions Sould serve for public welfare Should yield results to the benefit of humanity
What Turkey had Achieved by Now…After I. World War and Turkish War of Independence, Turkey by 1923 Dependent Economy, Underdeveloped, Agriculture Based, Raw
Material Production Railway Infrastructure and Factory Airplane Factory Factories in Textile, Sugar and Cement Sectors
1933 – University Reform 1933 – I. Five Year Term Industry Plan 1938 - II. Five Year Term Industry PlanII. WORLD WAR…. 1948 – 1951 Marshall Plan (137 M$)
WHAT WAS THE COST TO TURKEY?
WHAT WE MISSED… 1940s
AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY AND SECTOR 1960s
AUTOMATIVE TECHNOLOGY AND SECTOR
1990s
TELECOMMUNICATONS TECHNOLOGY AND SECTOR
Turkey is considered only a Customer in these Sectors.
Can we become one of the main actors???
WHAT WE LEARNED… Donot Expect Everything From The Government… Laws, Regulations,… Are Not Sufficient To Create
The Desirable Conditions/Results… Cultural Background is the Essential Item… Therefore, Knowledge Gained From Experiences
Should Be Kept And Accumulated To Build Up The Culture…
THIS IS WHY USIMP WAS ESTABLISHED?
