The results of the 5th Term of the University Student Clubs Cooperation and Support Program (ÜNİDES), implemented by the General Directorate of Youth Services under the Ministry of Youth and Sports and aimed at contributing to the personal, social, sporting, and cultural development of young people, have been announced.

Following evaluations by the Assessment Committee, 1,044 projects were granted support, including 295 at the national level and 749 at the local level. Among these, the Student Clubs at Zonguldak Bülent Ecevit University achieved significant success, with 13 projects accepted—2 at the national level and 11 at the local level.
Expressing his pride and joy over the success of the Student Clubs, BEUN Rector Prof. Dr. İsmail Hakkı Özölçer said:
“At Zonguldak Bülent Ecevit University, our educational philosophy is not limited to academic knowledge alone. We also prioritize providing a university experience that strengthens the social, cultural, artistic, and societal dimensions of our students. The development of our students into individuals who can generate ideas, take responsibility, be enterprising, and productive reflects our vision for youth.
Our student clubs, operating with this approach, continue to make a difference throughout the year with their innovative initiatives and projects that add value to society. ÜNİDES plays an important role in making these efforts visible at the national level.
According to the results of the 5th Term of ÜNİDES, our university’s student communities have earned support for a total of 13 projects—2 at the national level and 11 at the local level. This achievement demonstrates that our students maintain a sustainable record of success and that our communities continue to foster a strong project culture.
This success is a natural outcome of BEUN’s student-centered vision and the value it places on young people’s ideas and initiatives. The supported projects cover a wide range of areas—from environmental awareness to health, and from art to social responsibility—bringing tangible benefits to society. Our university will continue to provide opportunities for students to express themselves, develop, and implement projects in all fields.
I would like to extend my gratitude to our Minister of Youth and Sports, Dr. Osman Aşkın Bak, the General Directorate of Youth Services, and all stakeholders involved in the program for contributing to the development of university youth. I sincerely congratulate our students and academic advisors whose projects were supported, and I hope their work continues to inspire our university and our country.”
