Under the EU 6th Framework Program ITU EU Centre is participating in the 'Turkish Mobility Network (TR-MONET)' project, launched in January 2005, in cooperation with TUBITAK, METU, Ege University, Bogazici and Gaziantep University. The project aims to set up Mobility Centers in Turkey which will work in accordance with around 200 other Mobility Centers currently established in 33 European countries. (ERA-MORE Network).
These centers will support the mobility of researchers throughout Europe and try to create a more favourable environment for incoming researchers to Turkey by providing logistic service in all matters relating to their proffessional and daily life, such as taxation, social security, as well as issues related to their families and will offer all reseachers a practical and harmonised instrument to make it easier to prepare for their mobility experience and facilitate their settlement in their host country.
