Research Policies

Research Policies

Research Policies can be created for a given duration of Academic year, against which faculties can create Publications and other Contributions.

Research policy involved calculation logic for the API (Academic Performance Indicator). This API further will be converted into FDA (faculty Development assistance).

FDA is the actual amount which faculty can use further in research activities.

Research policies can either be used as per the UGC norms or can be restructured according to own norms.
