Abstract :Yarn and spinning technology is a complex process that is a combination of raw materials, machinery, and automation technology where continuous improvements, researches and innovations run progressively. For the evolution of spinning technology, academic publications, postgraduate theses, and technological contributions of related shareholders must be considered as adherent supplements. Aim of this study is to examine the accomplished 236 postgraduate theses related to conventional and novel textile fibre types, staple spun/filament yarn technology and machinery, yarn types with structural and functional varieties, and modified spinning technologies in Turkish Universities. Moreover, it is aimed to reveal any trend in theses on yarn technology and the regional textile clusters in Türkiye. The methodology of the pursuit is a quantitative assessment where postgraduate level, thesis subject, year of thesis defence, and raw materials used in the theses are concerned. The findings showed that researchers focussed on conventional spinning systems and yarns in parallel with the spinning capacity and import potential of the country. Other extractions of the study are; classical ring system is mostly studied by the researchers, modern spinning technologies are included in many theses, reflections of global circumstances are distinguished in theses with keywords of manmade/recycled fibres, and blended yarns.
