As part of the Erasmus+ mobility program, the Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences (FLES) hosted two professors from Bursa Technical University – Assoc. Prof. Dr. Salih Parlak and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Murat Köse, from the Faculty of Forestry Engineering.

During their stay at FLES, the guest professors delivered open lectures to students of the Forestry and Environmental Sciences program, sharing knowledge and experiences in the fields of sustainable forest management and wood technology.

As part of the visit, they toured the faculty’s laboratories and held meetings with FLES academic staff to explore opportunities for deepening academic and scientific collaboration between the institutions.

A special meeting was also held with the Director of Forestry within the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development, focusing on the potential for trilateral cooperation in scientific research, professional exchange, and joint project development.

The visit was considered highly productive and marks an important step toward expanding FLES’s international partnerships and promoting academic mobility for both staff and students.
