TÜBİTAK UME

TÜBİTAK National Metrology Institute (UME) is a research and development institute operating under the umbrella of the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye (TÜBİTAK). The aim of the Institute is to ensure equality in national and international trade and to increase the quality of Turkish industrial products and to contribute to the scientific and technological development of Turkey by creating the National Metrology System necessary to secure all measurements made in Turkey, to ensure the integration of these measurements into the international system, to develop existing and new measurement technologies, thus to ensure the accuracy of measurements used in the commercial and industrial environment. For this purpose, the Institute develops and maintains national measurement reference standards, ensures their traceability to the international measurement system, and makes them available to the industry, science and research system.

The Institute, which constitutes a reference for measurements made in Turkey and is the highest authority on this subject, cooperates with other units of TÜBİTAK, domestic and foreign organizations in its studies, and takes into consideration the principles of training both its own researchers and technical personnel and the technical personnel of external organizations active in measurement, testing, calibration, analysis, control and metrology.
