Two Faculty Members from Our Vocational School Named Among the World’s Most Influential Scientists
Prof. Dr. Aliihsan ŞEKERTEKİN and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Muhittin KULAK, faculty members at the Iğdır University Vocational School of Technical Sciences, have achieved a significant academic milestone by being included in the list of the "World’s Top 2% Scientists," compiled by Stanford University and Elsevier.
In this study, which evaluates the international scientific impact of scientists, criteria such as the number of publications and citations, the h-index, the hm-index, authorship position, and various other bibliometric indicators were taken into account. Researchers were assessed across two distinct categories: "Annual Scientific Impact" and "Career-Long Scientific Impact."
In this context, Prof. Dr. Aliihsan ŞEKERTEKİN, a faculty member at our vocational school, has been ranked among the world’s top 2% most influential scientists in both the annual and career-long scientific impact categories, while Assoc. Prof. Dr. Muhittin KULAK has successfully earned a place on the list in the annual scientific impact category.
The inclusion of two faculty members from our vocational school in an international list—which features a total of 10 academics from Iğdır University—serves as a significant source of pride regarding our unit’s scientific research capacity and academic productivity.
As the Vocational School of Technical Sciences, we congratulate our esteemed faculty members, Prof. Dr. Aliihsan ŞEKERTEKİN and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Muhittin KULAK, who have successfully represented our university and our vocational school within the international scientific community, and we wish them continued success in their scholarly endeavors.
