Where Should I Start?

Dear Researchers,

A wide and comprehensive range of funding opportunities is available for conducting scientific research in Türkiye.

For your scientific research projects, we recommend that you first apply for TÜBİTAK ARDEB funding programs. You may also apply directly for BAP Project support if you could not obtain TÜBİTAK funding, if your project is subject to time constraints (e.g., a short thesis period), if your ongoing project requires additional work, or in similar circumstances.

We encourage researchers experienced with ARDEB and BAP funding to also apply for Bilateral Cooperation and EU programs (COST, Horizon) in addition to ARDEB programs.

In addition to project funding, you may consider Development Agency programs for research infrastructure, clustering activities and similar needs.

You may contact our specialists below directly, depending on the type of support you wish to apply for and your department:
