Mustafa N. PARLAR authored 25 scientific papers published both domestically and internationally, along with one translated book and four original books. He also wrote numerous technical reports and nearly 60 articles published in newspapers. He had four children.

Mustafa PARLAR did not adhere to a scientific perspective detached from the developmental challenges of society and industry. Instead, he strongly advocated for the transformative power of scientific thought, the role of universities in society, and the enhancement of quality of life. Through the laboratories he established and the researchers he mentored, he played a constructive and creative role in demonstrating that scientific thinking could drive positive change.

Despite facing obstacles that could have hindered his intellect and ambitions, Mustafa PARLAR remained resilient. Rather than succumbing to difficulties, he emerged stronger. His commitment to advancing his country through technology, his understanding of the university’s societal role, and his philosophy of “science for life” became deeply embedded in his students.
