 Our university contributes to the reduction of environmental pollution


Prof. Dr. Bedri Yüksel reminded that Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU) has ranked 100-200 among world universities in the Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Ranking 'Affordable and Clean Energy' category. Yüksel evaluated the ranking as a major success in terms of Turkey's image and said: "This evaluation also shows the contribution of our university to clean energy and reduction of environmental pollution on an international and national basis."


Stating that the ranking is an indicator of the studies carried out by the university and the importance given to the environment in the category of "Affordable and Clean Energy", Yüksel said: “As it is known, our country imports approximately 77 percent of its total energy consumption and the negative impact of this energy import on the country's economy is considerable. It is known that the sudden increases in world energy prices in the past, especially after 1970, caused major economic crises in our country and serious problems for our country. Our country spends billions of dollars on energy imports, which has a negative impact on our country's economy.”
