About R& D Cell
The Central university of Jharkhand (CUJ), Ranchi, has established the Research and Development Cell in September 2021 in conformity with the intents of National Education Policy 2020 (NEP), that considers outstanding research as the co-requisite for outstanding education and development. As NEP 2020 envisages the development of active research communities across disciplines to transform the teaching intensive universities in to Research intensive universities through systemic and structural changes, this the prerequisite of the university. The CUJ is in a evolving stage and striving to establish its credibility through delivering and complying to the national need. An Institutional Development Plan has been drafted that lays down a blueprint for the transformation of this university to a Multi-disciplinary Research-Intensive University.
To create a research ecosystem in the university a variety of initiatives and measures have been undertaken that include establishment of the R&D Cell, formulating research policy to provide an enabling environment, building capacity of researchers, creating research infrastructure, provision of seed funding to young researchers etc. The University is giving incentives for publishing high quality and globally cited research papers may be through partnership with other institutes.
