Why Research is Important in the University


Core business in the university is teaching and produce a quality graduates that carry university's name and image. Therefore research is very important not just in the specific field but on the performance of the graduates. Research can support teaching and extension. Research upgrading knowledge in specific subject and in the university lecturers teaching his/her own subjects not like the primary schools where the teachers teaching all subjects except (perhaps) English and religious matters. The outcome of research probably the publications, public use, supporting government policies or guidelines, pattern for commercialisation and recognition. So, research university not the publication or pattern university but research is for enhancing teaching for a quality, competitive, flexible and functional graduates.
