The research departments of a university are the places where new knowledge is created, where the theoretical and the empirical meet, where academic scholarship connects with the outside world, guiding thought, producing ideas and developing solutions. The Directorate of Research (DoR) of the was established on 18 April 2012 to coordinate and guide the research activities of its 171 research centres in an effective and fruitful way so that the highest possible standards of excellence would be attained. Its mission is to initiate and promote research projects that address challenges and issues in the frontier areas and to administer and guide the 37 university departments and 134 other approved research centres so that a generative research environment can be sustained and doctoral students trained in cutting edge research. Along with efficient monitoring and evaluation to ensure proper implementation of projects, the DoR is committed to mobilization of more funds for original research, so that research can be conducted in an investigator friendly and hassle-free environment.

This year has seen growth in every area of our activities. There has been an increase in PhD enrollment as well as degrees awarded. Scholar friendly initiatives include initiation of admission process for the new batch of M Phil and PhD students through a centralized admission process, the beginning of a major revision of research and project regulations and other initiatives that are underway.

This report is the compilation of the research activities of the University Teaching Departments and other approved Research Centres during 2015. With a focus on new strategic initiatives and with our institutional vision and goals, the Directorate of Research aims to propel the University of Calicut into the forefront of the leading edge research destinations of the nation.
