NEP, 2020: UGC GUIDELINES FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT (R&D) CELL IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

H. M. NAVEEN

Abstract

Research, innovation and development are important aspects to improve quality of education in the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The social challenges can only be addressed through a strong and vibrant higher education eco-system with an emphasis on development of research, innovation and technology. The National Education Policy (NEP), 2020 also envisages the promotion of quality research and development within the Higher Education System. This article introduces the readers with regard to the Guidelines for the establishment of Research and Development (R&D) Cell in HEIs. The purpose of these guidelines is to introduce a robust mechanism for developing and strengthening the research ecosystem within HEIs as per the provisions of NEP, 2020. It is expected that these UGC guidelines will facilitate HEIs in the establishment of R&D Cell. It is hoped that the HEIs will find it useful and take the benefits of this initiative of UGC.
