YOK Akademik — Official Turkish Academic Profile & Affiliation Lookup
YOK Akademik (Yükseköğretim Kurulu Akademik — the Turkish Council of Higher Education's academic search portal) is the authoritative source for a Turkish academic's official current affiliation. It is YÖKSİS-backed (the national higher-education information system), so for Turkish institutions it is more reliable than ORCID or OpenAlex affiliation strings, which lag and fragment.
This skill resolves a name to that official record: current kurum (institution), fakülte/bölüm (faculty/department), unvan (academic title — e.g. Prof. Dr., Doç. Dr., Dr. Öğr. Üyesi), plus the person's portal-listed publications, research projeler (projects), and danışmanlık yapılan tezler (supervised theses).
No public JSON API exists. The portal at
akademik.yok.gov.tr/AkademikArama/is a server-rendered Java/JSP app. The only route is polite HTML scraping of its verified endpoints. Treat every record as authoritative-but-scraped: confirm a candidate match with the user before asserting an affiliation.
