UGC invites research proposals from teachers under Minor Research Project

The University Grants Commission (UGC) has invited proposals from teachers across the country to provide financial support under the ‘Minor Research Project for Teachers’ proposal. Only permanent teachers working in any college or institution are eligible for funding under the project.

Teachers who are beneficiaries of Minor Research Projects Scheme, who have submitted the final report of the project but have not completed a gap of one year are not eligible to apply under the scheme.

UGC has also asked the teachers who are already receiving fellowships or funding under any scheme of the UGC or any other agency not to apply for the project. The commission has also asked the colleges to make adequate arrangement in specialised areas of research while forwarding the research proposals.

The last date for submitting proposals is 31^st December, 2013.
