6 PAPERS SUBMITTED. 6 PAPERS ACCEPTED. ZERO REJECTIONS! 🇹🇷🎉

A proud supervisor moment! 🥹❤️

Today, 6 papers from my students are being presented at the Smart City Applications (SCA) 2026 Conference in Türkiye!

This is my first time submitting SIX papers to the same conference, and honestly, I was nervous! What if some got rejected? 😅

So, before submission, I made sure every paper went through several rounds of revisions. Almost FIVE rounds, to be exact! 😂 My students even started telling me not to pressure them too much. Hahaha!

But when it comes to academic writing, especially for a Scopus-indexed conference, I can be quite demanding. Getting ONE paper accepted is already an achievement, let alone SIX at once!

And today, all that hard work has paid off! 🥹

Congratulations to Samantha, Damia, Melati, Jiao Yang, and Alis! 🎓👏

Sorry for all the pressure, endless comments, and repeated revisions. I know it wasn’t easy, but I wanted you to see what you’re truly capable of achieving.

Sometimes, being a little tough is part of helping students reach their full potential.

Proud of you all! Keep pushing boundaries, and may this be the beginning of many more research achievements! 🚀
