A Proposal of Basic Research Grant for Faculties
Doing research together with traditional academic activities is the basic responsibility of
university teachers. The ranking of a university significantly depends on the research outcomes
of its faculty members and students. To do cutting edge research, the invoived reseatchers must
be given support along different dimensions, and one irnportant dimension in this regard is of
course financial support. It is understandable that there are lacks of funding in the context of
Bangladesh. Being the pioneer engineering and technological university of Bangladesh, BUET
should think ahead and take all necessary steps to estabiish a research environment for the
faculty members, researchers and students by providing some sort of research funding to the
faculty member with a flexible guideline to spend the allocated fund towards the advancement of
hislher research works with his/her students. Faculty members are also needed to be encouraged
towards inter and intra faculty collaborations. With this end in view, the following scheme of
funding is proposed.

Each of the Professors, Associate Professors and Assistant Professors having a Ph.D' degree will
be allocated a research grant from the University to meet the basic needs for doing research with
his/her students. Using this fund a faculty can

I attend conferences and research meetings in home and abroad,

. support students to attend conferences held within or outside Bangladesh,

. pay registration fees to attend conferences, workshops or other scholarly meetings and
publication fees for publication in reputed journals indexed by Clarivate Analytics'

. pay fuil or partiai necessary expenses for visits of invited foreign professors/researchers
for collaborative research, and

. meet urgent and necessary materials, equipment, and other costs for carrying out
research.

This grant will provide an opporhrnity for a faculty to present his/her research resrilts in
conf'erences, acquire cutting edge knowledge of his/her field by attending research meetings
and
workshops, encourage students by giving financial support for attending conferences? pay
publication costs, invite foreign research collaborators with local hospitality.

This regeareh grant will be given once in every two years to a faculty member. Half of the
year.
faculty members will be given in one financial year and the remaining half in the following
To be eligible to receive this fund, a facuby member must have a journal paper indexed by
Clarivate Analyics in the last two years. Note that this fund is proposed in addition
to current
conference funding of teachers. The proposed amount and its duration of use are as follows:

Designation Amount (Taka) Duration of Use

Professor 3.00,000 Two years
Associate Professor 2.00.000 Two years
Two years
Assistant Professor l!q,qq0 _

A grant-receiving faculty can use the futl grant amount for a single purpose or for multipie
prrpor", allowed by the list mentioned above within the stipulated two-year duration, Teachers
can take advance by filling out prescribed form as per necessity within the quota limit'
Expenrlifure on urgent needs can also be reimbursed within the quota lirnit. He/she must
submit
the evidences of expenditures, such as money receipts, invitation letter, boarding pass
for air
travel, etc. to the university account section. After the two-year period, the unused fund,
if any,
will be lapsed and a faculty should apply for a new grant'
Afler every two-year period, a faculty member must submit a report mentioning hislher research
period' The report will
activities and achievements together with heads of expenditure during the
be evaluated by a committee of three members as foilows:

1. One Dean norninated by Vice-chancellor ----Chair

2, One Professor nominated by Vice-chancellor - Member
3. Comptroller --- Member

The next grant will be ailocated based on the fulfilIment of the pr-rblication requirement
of a
journal puf., indexed by Clarivate Analytics and satisfactory recommendation of the committee'
