Turkish Universities in the European Research Area

8-9 October 2015, Ankara

The European Commission and a group of six leading Turkish universities are organising a Conference on the Turkish Universities in the European Research Area in Ankara on 8 October 2015.

The aim of the Conference is to bring Turkish universities more on the European scientific map by making them familiar with the European Research Area (ERA) priority actions and discussing with them how to comply with these principles which in turn will strengthen the research and innovation capacity at national level and facilitate cooperation with EU research and innovation entities under the Union's research and innovation programme 'Horizon 2020'.

The second day of the Conference will focus on research and innovation opportunities under the Union's framework programme Horizon 2020. Cooperation on energy is high on the agenda amongst others on Energy, ICT and Health topics.
