BEENOME (1.0) is in Use!
 

 
ITU is a large family consisting of thousands of students, academics, administrative staff and graduates with different knowledge, skills and talents. By using this great potential of ITU, we want to create an environment where everyone can learn from each other. For this purpose, we are developing the BEENOME platform, which we see as the Knowledge Genome of ITU, the foundations of which were laid at the ITU Centre for Excellence in Education (ITU CEE). The second phase of the project, where you can access its first version (BEENOME 1.0) in Turkish below, is ongoing.
