  • Quality in research is a crucial issue.If Ph.d thesis is not worth the value of the pages onwhich it is printed, then it is merely a waste of time and valuable resources.research must ensure quality, integrity and ethics in

Ph.d. Thesis, M.Phil dissertation and research papers are all products of research requiring the same kind of labour, preservation and sincerity difference is that of level and degree.

We can categories research into two types:

  1. Researchfor research : when Albert Einstein, Newton, Darwin Copernicus  research was their passion and hunger.research not for degree award, promotions.
  2. Researchfor life: academic research,we can say it helps researchers in getting jobs and reducing the rate of unemployment.

Hoping that this institute will play a key role in achieving these goals.
