As one of the country’s leading research and education institutions, the [University of La Push] (“University”) is committed to providing its students and academic members with innovative learning. Thus, the University focuses on strengthening research endeavors. This Research Policy Handbook (“Policy”) is created to outline appropriate guidelines and protocols for research and spread awareness of the importance of the conduct of research, research procedures, and publishing methods among undergraduate and graduate students.
Scope
The terms and conditions of this Policy apply to all students of all levels taking research subjects. This Policy also applies to employed professionals in the University who publish research papers and participate in various research projects for the University Index Research. Full-time, part-time, and supplemental faculty members are covered by this Policy as well.
Policy Guidelines
The University encourages students and faculty members to submit research proposals that are in line with the University’s current research agenda. Students with research subjects are only allowed to participate in this endeavor. The University’s Research Committee will handle the approval of research proposals.
The University will only fund research projects conducted by the Research and Development Department. However, faculty members can apply for funding if their research project will benefit the University. On the other hand, students will be responsible for their research funds, since it is one of their requirements for graduation.
Both full-time and part-time faculty members are required to complete at least research output within three academic years. This may be done in collaboration with other faculty members or individually.
