BTU Researchers Advance Metallurgical Research Collaboration at SUT under Horizon Europe MSCA

Researchers from Bursa Technical University (BTU), Türkiye, are undertaking a research visit at Suranaree University of Technology (SUT), Thailand, from 29 June to 29 July 2026.

During their one-month visit, Dr. Burak Kucukelyas and Ms. Cansu Celtik are collaborating with faculty members and researchers from the School of Metallurgical Engineering, Institute of Engineering, SUT, under a research project supported by the Horizon Europe Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA).

The visit provides an important platform for exchanging academic knowledge and research expertise, undertaking collaborative research activities, and strengthening professional networks between researchers from both universities. It also supports the development of future research initiatives and sustainable international academic cooperation in metallurgical engineering and related fields.

The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions form part of Horizon Europe and are the European Union’s flagship programme for doctoral education, postdoctoral training, and researcher development. The programme promotes international, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral mobility, enabling researchers to acquire new knowledge and skills while strengthening cooperation among institutions worldwide.

Bursa Technical University was established in 2010 in Bursa, one of Türkiye’s prominent industrial and commercial centres. BTU places strong emphasis on research, entrepreneurship, innovation, and practical cooperation with industry, with the vision of becoming a leading institution in education, research, science, and technology.

This research visit reflects SUT’s commitment to advancing internationally connected research, promoting researcher mobility, and building meaningful partnerships that contribute to academic excellence and innovation at the global level.
