Üsküdar Üniversitesi has added a new one to its pioneering approaches in digital transformation by launching 'FTSmart', Turkey's first and only smart academic performance management and improvement ecosystem. Built upon the Activity Tracking System (FTS) developed five years ago under the leadership of Üsküdar Üniversitesi Founding Rector and Chairman of the Executive Board Prof. Dr. Nevzat Tarhan, FTSmart analyzes the university's past data and offers smart recommendations for improving academic performance.
Offers real-time data tracking and multidisciplinary study recommendations
Developed by the university's Department of Digital Technologies and Software Development, under the visionary leadership of Chairman of the Board of Trustees Furkan Tarhan, the FTSmart system tracks faculty members' academic, administrative, and educational activities with real-time big data analysis, providing reasoned recommendations for multidisciplinary research.
Supports the mission of increasing scientific productivity…
FTSmart enables academics to track their work in a measurable, transparent, and more efficient way, while also supporting Üsküdar Üniversitesi's mission to increase scientific productivity.
FTSmart allows all academic and administrative units with relational connections, including Application and Research Centers, Working Groups, and student clubs, to collaborate and interact with each other.
While 4 years of data stored with a project, publication, and research-oriented interface in line with corporate priorities reaches an analyzable size with FTSmart, the added Generative pre-trained transformer (GPT) is also trained with this data, enabling it to generate instant answers to researchers' verbal and written questions.
Aims to position it stronger in the global academic arena…
FTSmart not only analyzes individual performance but also suggests multidisciplinary collaboration opportunities. This allows faculty members to discover potential projects and evaluate interdisciplinary collaboration possibilities. This AI-based system aims to play a critical role in shaping the university model of the future, positioning Üsküdar Üniversitesi stronger in the global academic arena.
Paving the way for new scientific discoveries through an interdisciplinary bridge…
The data-driven FTSmart system aims to elevate not only individual academic performance but also overall academic success across the university. Advancing artificial intelligence technologies enable faster and more accurate access to information in academia, as well as building bridges between different disciplines, paving the way for new scientific discoveries. Highlighting that Üsküdar Üniversitesi is part of this transformation with FTSmart, Vice Rector Prof. Dr. Türker Tekin Ergüzel stated that the system contributes to conducting scientific studies on a more innovative and collaborative ground, and that the AI-based system will play a critical role in shaping the university model of the future.
Described as a revolutionary development in the academic world
Ergüzel noted that this innovative application stands out as a significant step in Üsküdar Üniversitesi's digitalization process, stating, 'It is described as a revolutionary development in the academic world. With its unparalleled smart performance management and improvement ecosystem application in Turkey, it aims to increase scientific productivity and collaboration opportunities. FTSmart will continue pioneering work in academia for the processing of corporate big data and its presentation as a value-generating product, as one of Üsküdar Üniversitesi's important steps in the digitalization process.'
