ACADEMIC INCENTIVE FUNDING PROCESS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (ATÖSİS)

Academic incentive score is the sum of the rates a faculty member receives due to the sub-activity of each activity type. 30 points are determined for each academic activity type. Multiplying the 30 points determined by the sum of the sub-activity rates gives the academic activity type score.

ATÖSİS was developed to enable Academic Incentive Grant processes to be carried out electronically. According to the legislation, researchers are required to enter their academic activities into the YÖKSİS system. The activities that researchers will use in the application are transferred to the ATÖSİS system from the records they enter into the YÖKSİS system. Documents proving the activities are uploaded to the ATÖSİS system and submitted. All processes such as application, evaluation, revision of the application, creation of a commission decision, objection, etc. are carried out electronically.
