Amaç: Bu çalışmada, Türkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Araştırma Kurumu (TÜBİTAK) tarafından oluşturulan ve “Üniversitelerin Alan Bazlı Yetkinlik Analizi” çalışması esas alınarak, Ankara Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi için anabilim dalı ve öğretim üyesi yetkinlik analizlerinin yapılması amaçlanmıştır.

Yöntem: Çalışma kapsamında, yayın, atıf ve projelere ilişkin veriler için 2018-2020 dönemi baz alınmıştır. Göstergelere ilişkin veriler, WOS ve Scopus veri tabanı, Incites ve SciVal vasıtasıyla temin edilmiştir. Ayrıca fakültedeki tüm öğretim üyelerinin faaliyetleri çalışma verilerine dâhil edilmiştir. Öğretim üyeleri ve anabilim dalları için göstergeler tanımlanarak Anabilim Dalı Hacim ve Kalite Göstergeleri ile Öğretim Üyesi Hacim ve Kalite Göstergeleri için kriterler oluşturulmuştur.

Bulgular: Çalışma sonucunda diş hekimliği fakültesi akademik yetkinlik grafikleri oluşturulmuştur. Düşük hacim ve düşük kaliteden, yüksek hacim ve yüksek kaliteye kadar olan anabilim dalları ve öğretim üyelerine ilişkin gruplar elde edilmiştir.

Özgünlük: Bu çalışma ile bütün üniversitelerde kullanılabilecek basit ve efektif anabilim Dalı ve öğretim Üyesi Yetkinlik analiz yöntemi oluşturulmuştur.
