14.15. Collaborative Research with Students

DU encourages collaborative research with students, especially under Graduate Research Grant
and Undergraduate Grant. The faculty member involved in MoHERI funded student research
projects receives a certificate of appreciation and cash reward on Annual Research Day. They also
score an additional rating in Research and Scholarly Activities in AFAR for collaborative research
with students. Likewise, there are incentives for publication of Research Papers in Collaboration
with DU’s Student(s) and research conducted at DU.

14.16. Research Groups
Considering the research expertise and the research facilities available in each College and the
Research centre, DU has formed Research groups considering the topics of research of regional
and national importance. This is done to facilitate the research collaboration with other HEIs and
relevant Industries.
