The Daily Star Award Presentation Ceremony

Amidst a crowd of hundreds sat in their own corner, the students of International Turkish Hope School (ITHS), satisfaction in their heart, confidence oozing out of their very being, and a sense of unity as they sat not simply as students, but as brothers and sisters. The very air around them seemed to be different; the aura of pride almost seemed tangible. The reason behind such happiness, such delight in the souls of this young generation? Three words best describe the reason. Daily Star Awards.
The huge stadium seemed to be buzzing with excitement as each student took his place amongst their friends, ready to start the day to which they have been looking forward to since the night their results came out. But, do not be misled, as the excitement was not only felt by the students but the parents, siblings, uncles, teachers, friends and many others as they took their seat in the audience, their heart filled with as much, if not more joy than the student himself.
Perhaps the most memorable moment of the day was when Tamim Iqbal, the legend, came to the ceremony to motivate the Nation Builders of tomorrow. This was not a small gesture, as his very presence seemed to fill the entire stadium with such energy and inspiration, and not a single word of his was missed by the hungry ears of the large audience.

An Announcement for the Prospective Students of METU

METU IS IN THE "TOP 100 UNIVERSITIES BY REPUTATION LIST" 

Middle East Technical University is among the “Top 100 Universities by Reputation” which was recently announced by Times Higher Education (THE) on 15 March 2012. METU is the first and the only Turkish university that is included in this list.

"THE World Reputation Rankings 2012" includes universities that are identified as “excellent” in research and education by academics from various countries. It is declared that the ratings are based on the evaluations of more than 17,000 academics from 6,000 universities in almost 150 countries selected by THE. The academics are selected on the basis of their experience (average of 16 years) and number of publications (average of 50 publications). The academics chosen for the survey are asked questions such as “Which university would you send your most successful graduates to for the best graduate education?”

As in the previous years, universities from the developed countries such as United States, United Kingdom, Japan and Germany have the highest representation in the 2012 list. METU’s inclusion in the “Top 100 Universities by Reputation” list is seen as a major source of prestige for Turkey as well as METU, because universities from only 19 countries are represented in the 2012 rankings.  Many countries such as Russia, India, Spain, Austria, Italy and Ireland do not have universities in the top 100 list.  

The success of METU can be attributed to the success of our graduates in leading world universities, to the significant rise in research collaborations, scientific publications and citations of our faculty, as well as to the positive impressions of academics worldwide who have visited METU.

We congratulate and express our sincere thanks to our faculty members, administrative staff, students and graduates for their contribution to this well-deserved recognition.
