Kastamonu University is implementing an important project to support Turkey's National Technology Move and contribute to national technological development. The project titled 'Kastamonu University National Technology Workshop,'’ prepared within the scope of TÜBİTAK 4003-T National Technology Workshops Call was approved to be realized with a support of 30 million TL.
Designed with modern infrastructure and rich equipment facilities, the workshop will provide a platform for students to develop technology, engineering, and science projects. This center, which will be open to students of our University and young people in the region, will enable the implementation of innovative ideas and the development of technological skills.
The National Technology Workshops, which bring together all the equipment and materials needed by the teams participating in science and technology competitions, are designed so students can collaborate to develop innovative projects. These areas, planned to be implemented in universities and TÜBİTAK-supported science centers, aim to improve young people's entrepreneurship and innovation skills and contribute to regional development.
