The primary objective is to monitor and evaluate the development of each university in line with its mission and vision according to the criteria set. Our main goal is to identify and support the aspects of universities that are open to improvement instead of making a hierarchical evaluation. We observe that our higher education institutions carry out meticulous work through monitoring and evaluation units based on the indicators identified. We believe that these efforts will make a significant contribution to the data-based decision-making processes of institutions and we are pleased that this process is being carefully followed by universities."
