Emerging nanotechnologies bring a new challenge for developing countries to improve knowledge and technology transfer between universities and firms. In developing countries, weaker ties between academia and the industry seem to be one of the main barriers to the dissemination of nanotechnology innovations. This study aims to understand individual and organizational factors affecting university-industry interactions in emerging nanotechnologies in a developing country context, namely Turkey. For this study, 181 questionnaires were collected from a sample of nanoscience and nanotechnology academics who are currently employed by Turkish universities. The results provide that informal / interpersonal and research-related interactions are the most common forms of relationship between academics and firms. On the other hand, the study provides a useful insight to understand how human and social capitals of university-scientists as well as organizational resources/ capabilities influence the formation of links between universities and the industry.

Firm Level Absorptive Capacity and the Success of International Technology Transfer: the Case of Aerospace Industry in Turkey
Seçkin, Başar (Science And Technology Policies Research Center, Middle East Technical University (Ankara, Turkey), 2016)
This paper aims to figure out the relation between firm level absorptive capacity (AC) and the success of international technology transfer (ITT). Additionally, effects of determinants on the success of ITT other than firm level AC are examined. The research is focused on aerospace industry in Turkey by considering the transferee country’s point of view, as well as the developing country perspective. The research stands at a position to answer the question of “what forms AC” in a holistic way. In this conte...
Who interacts with whom?Individual and organizational aspects of university-industry interactions in nanotechnology: the turkish case
Beyhan Bozkırlıoğlu, Berna; Pamukcu, Mehmet Teoman; Department of Science and Technology Policy Studies (2011)
The main purpose of this study is to explore individual and organizational level factors which influence the formation of knowledge and technology transfer links between universities and firms. To this end, three sets of data are collected and analyzed. The first one includes bibliometric data of nanotechnology publications, which are authored by scientists affiliated with Turkish universities. The second one is collected through a questionnaire survey from university-scientists dealing with nanoscale resea...
Pre-service science teachers’ perceptions about their technology integration experiences in the science education program: Does willingness to choose the program matter?
Durukan, Alper; Sungur, Semra (Anı Yayıncılık; 2020)
The integration of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the training of pre-service science teachers has an essential place in the literature and promises meaningful outcomes. Therefore, it has become essential to define the connotations of undergraduate training experience for pre-service science teachers that will encourage them to integrate ICT materials into their practices. Based on this need, the Synthesis of Qualitative Evidence (SQD) model, which identifies the components that are ...
Firm level absorptive capacity and the success of international technology transfer: the case of aerospace industry in Turkey
Seçkin, Başar; Erdil, Erkan; Dikmen Toker, İrem; Department of Science and Technology Policy Studies (2015)
This dissertation aims to figure out the relation between firm level absorptive capacity (AC) and the success of international technology transfer (ITT). Additionally, effects of determinants on the success of ITT other than firm level AC are examined. The research is focused on aerospace industry in Turkey by considering the transferee country’s point of view, as well as the developing country perspective.

The use of blockchain technology in public administration: implications for Turkey
Pekdemir, Emine; Yavuz, Nilay; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2021-10)
This study aims to evaluate the academic literature and current blockchain implementations in public administration in the Republic of Korea, Estonia, Australia, United Kingdom and Israel, to discover possible opportunities, challenges and implementation areas of this technology for Turkish public administration. The selection of the countries is based on the UN EGDI and the OECD STI Scoreboard. In the first part, the features of blockchain technology and the academic literature were analyzed. Then, strateg...
