Funding
The majority of interviewees (74%) expressed concerns related to “access to resources.” The most frequently mentioned problems were insufficiencies in financial support, equipment, and space or time, along with inadequate mentorship, and failure to develop teamwork. There were, however, differences between the universities both in the availabilities and the causes of access problems. Whereas almost all of the interviewees from KTU, COMU, YTU and AKDU reported difficulties in gaining access to resources, only a total of 8 academics from ITU and KOU had similar complaints. EU funds, as well as financial support provided by such state institutions as DPT (the State Planning Organization) and TUBITAK (the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey), or university-based BAP (Scientific Research Projects) were the main resources used by academics. We would like to express our gratitude to the participating universities and their Scientific Research Units for their contributions, together with the generous support of Istanbul Technical University, Coca Cola, and the Istanbul Technical University Development Foundation in the funding of all the coordination activities and the dissemination conference. We also would like to thank Mary Shapcott, Conall O'Cathain, and the reviewers for their inputs towards the improvement of this paper.
