The “NOROM Project”, which led to the establishment of the center and supported by the Presidency of the Republic of Türkiye Strategy and Budget Directorate, was included in the Investment Program with the Presidential “Approval” dated 21.11.2019 and is still ongoing.

 

NOROM is the first and pioneering joint University project and was established with the Higher Education Council of Türkiye (YÖK) law amendment dated April 17, 2020, which allows three universities to establish a joint center.

 

On June 19, 2020, the “Regulation on Joint Application and Research Centers in Higher Education Institutions” was issued, and on December 28, 2020 NOROM joint project was published in the official gazette and established.
