Research Support Office (ARDES)

As the Research Support Office (ARDES), established in 2025, our mission is to support the development of Doğuş University as a research-oriented university, to enhance the visibility of academic work across diverse research fields through increasing national and international collaborations, to ensure the efficient management of publication processes, and to provide our researchers with guidance and support at every stage. Through these efforts, we aim to strengthen the overall research development ecosystem of the University. 

ARDES seeks to improve the quality of scientific publications by offering guidance to academic staff on manuscript preparation, journal selection, and peer-review processes. By encouraging participation in reviewer and editorial activities for prestigious journals, ARDES contributes to the academic engagement of our faculty with the global research community. The Office also supports scientific productivity by facilitating access to databases and academic resources that researchers can utilize in their work. In addition, ARDES undertakes activities to assess the compliance of publications with international standards and provides English language editing support. ARDES has launched an ongoing monthly seminar series featuring leading national and international researchers from Doğuş University and other institutions, fostering academic exchange and research collaboration. 

Furthermore, ARDES promotes academic mentoring programs between senior academics and early-career researchers to strengthen knowledge and experience transfer, and supports the engagement of high-achieving students in academic research activities. We welcome all academic staff who require support at any stage of the publication process to collaborate with ARDES.
