Akademik Teşvik — Annual Incentive Score Calculator
Computes the akademik teşvik (academic-incentive) puanı for a Turkish
Devlet (state) university öğretim elemanı (academic staff member) for one
calendar year, and decides whether the incentive is payable. It applies the
Akademik Teşvik Ödeneği Yönetmeliği (Academic Incentive Allowance
Regulation; Bakanlar Kurulu 2018/11834, RG 27/6/2018 No. 30461, amended CK-2043
of 2020 — still the only amendment as of 2026-09) deterministically and
offline, so the same activity list always yields the same score. One court
ruling changed the table since: the "tanınmış ulusal yayınevi" definition and
its qualifier in the national book / chapter / book-citation rows were annulled
by Danıştay (final 8/9/2025) — details in references/tablo4.md.
This is an annual calculation distinct from doçentlik (associate- professorship) eligibility scoring: the two rule systems use different coefficients and thresholds, and this skill keeps them separate on purpose.
