Prof.Dr. HAKAN ULUKAN

Biyografi

        I was born in İzmir in Turkey on 04.10.1963 as the son of Mr. Bekir ULUKAN who is a soldier. I completed my high school education in Ankara in Türkiye, then I entered the University of Ankara, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Field Crops in 1982 and finished it in 1986 as an undergraduate student.

       Net year, I get the position of  “Researcher Assistantship”, I completed my Master's (MSc) thesis under the advisory of Prof.Dr. Ekrem KÜN, entitled “Effect of Between and On Row Distance to First Development, Tillering, Yield and Yield Components in Wheat (Triticum spp.)” between 1987 and 1990.

         Afterward, I was sent to Italy for participating in a scientific course on the “Corso Di Cerealicoltura” (Cereal Culture) by the Republic of Turkish Government for (7) months.  When getting back to my homeland, I completed my Doctorate Thesis (Ph.D.) under the advisory of  Prof Dr. A. Murat ÖZGEN, entitled “Relationships Between Rust (Puccinia spp.) Resistance in Some Wheat (Triticum spp.) Species” between the 1991 and the 1998 years.

         Now, I am working in the same department as an educational staff since 2012 with the branch of Cereals and Edible Pulses Growing and Breeding. I give some lessons such as FIELD CROPS AGRONOMY at the level of graduate, and FIELD CROPS ECOLOGY at the level of Master Science and Ph.D. I was called to attend an international conference which was organized by ANSINET and ACSE in UAE, Dubai-Deira in 2015. I participate in various international and scientific conferences in Bosnia-Herzegovina (Saraybosnia) in 2016 and 2017, and in Hungary (Budapest) in 2019. Similarly, I gave a lesson within the Erasmus+ Project in Spain (Valladolid) in 2018. Also, At the same time, I am an Editorial Board Member, Editor-In-Chief and have many national and international referees in these journals:
