Comparison Member and Candidate Countries to the European Union by Means of Main Health Indicators∗
China-USA Business Review, ISSN 1537-1514 April 2012, Vol. 11, No. 4, 556-563 D D AV I D PUBLISHING Comparison Member and Candidate Countries to the European ∗ Union by Means of Main Health Indicators Fatma Lorcu Trakya University, Edirne, Turkey Bilge Acar Bolat Istanbul University, Istanbul, Turkey Throughout history, health policies and the institutionalization of health care have taken shape according to political and economic conditions, social structures and value systems of societies, as well as to their needs and changes in health conditions. Today, economic development is addressed from a different approach in which the issue of health plays an important part. With a focus on the health sector’s role in development, this new approach has increased the importance of this sector of government and of life, allowing data on health to be included in many countries’ development indicators. The aim of this study is to identify the differences between EU former member states, member states, and candidate countries (including Turkey) in terms of health indicators that have become the key indicators of social and economic development. In this study, discriminant analysis will be used in order to analyse the differences between the European Union (EU) countries, and candidate countries in terms of main health indicators. Under-five mortality rate (‰), health expenditure per capita (PPP US$), total expenditure on health as percent of gross domestic product expenditure (percentage of GDP), immunization coverage among one-year-olds with one dose of measles (%), prevalence of current tobacco use among adults (≥ 15 years) (%), per capita recorded alcohol consumption (litres of pure alcohol) among adults, total fertility rate (%), hospital beds (per 1,000 population), physicians (per 1,000 population) and life expectancy are all included in the analysis as main health indicators of a country’s fitness for acceptance into the EU. -

Ties to Technoparks and University Characteristics in Turkey
Volume 8, Number 1, 2021, 97{117 journal homepage: region.ersa.org DOI: 10.18335/region.v8i1.300 ISSN: 2409-5370 Linking the Performance of Entrepreneurial Universities to Technoparks and University Characteristics in Turkey Tuzin Baycan1, Gokcen Arkali Olcay2 1 Istanbul Technical University, Istanbul, Turkey 2 Gebze Technical University, Gebze, Turkey Received: 10 January 2020/Accepted: 2 December 2020 Abstract. Universities' third mission of knowledge commercialization imposes them a core role towards becoming entrepreneurial universities in the triple helix interacting with the government and industry. Entrepreneurial universities have crucial functions of providing entrepreneurial support infrastructure for innovation and engaging in the regional economy. Technoparks, in that sense, form an essential channel for universities to disseminate and commercialize the knowledge considering their geographical proximity and facilitating mechanisms. Measuring the performances of entrepreneurial universities and technoparks in quantitative metrics have been initiated by different government agencies in Turkey, which resulted in two different indices. The Most Entrepreneurial and Innovative University Index and the Performance Index for Technoparks track performances annually. Using the data provided by the two indices, this study explores how the technoparks' performance can be linked to the universities' scores in entrepreneurship and innovation, along with some university-specific characteristics and their interactions. The geographical proximity provided by the technoparks contributes to the performance of entrepreneurial universities. While the increasing university size has a negative effect on university entrepreneurial scores, the socio-economic development factor of the region positively contributes to the scores. Young universities are also found to benefit more from the large share of the graduate students of their student composition on university entrepreneurship and innovation scores. -

The Evaluation of Architectural Education in the Scope of Sustainable Architecture
Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 89 ( 2013 ) 496 – 508 2nd Cyprus International Conference on Educational Research, (CY-ICER 2013) The Evaluation of Architectural Education in the Scope of Sustainable Architecture İzzet Yükseka* aKırklareli University, Faculty of Technical Education, Kavaklı Campus, Kavaklı, Kırklareli, 39060, Turkey Abstract In this study, examining the course contents (syllables) in undergraduate and graduate degrees in the departments of architecture at universities in Turkey, the extent they give place to the sustainability issues has been determined. A literature survey dealing with the topic was made, the studies carried out were analysed, and the current situation was compared with the results of these studies. In conclusion, the courses of “sustainable architecture” content in the course syllabuses have increased, but this improvement has been quite incomplete. © 2013 TheThe Authors. Authors.

Introduction The way of our and future generations’ sustaining life conditions in the natural balance of nature or at least protecting the present day situation passes through increasing our environmental sensitivity. The building sector, which consumes a significant part of the world’s existing sources, should also be a pioneer to other disciplines. The architect who designs the artificial sites we will live in the future should consider building as a part of the natural environment not as a single component. -
