SAFETY RESEARCH PROGRAMMES • RAMAKRISHNA • SAFETY ANALYSIS AND DOCUMENTATION DIVISION • ATOMIC ENERGY REGULATORY BOARD • MUMBAI
COMMITTEE FOR SAFETY RESEARCH PROGRAMMES(CSRP)CSRP is constituted by AERBFunctions of CSRP • To frame rules, regulations and guidelines for the research projects • To recommend, evaluate and monitor the research projects • Recommends financial assistance to universities, research organisations and professional associations for holding symposia and conferences of interest to AERB
RESEARCHPROJECTSEligibility • Organisations seeking the support of AERB are expected to have the basic infrastructure needed to carry out such research projects. • The facilities available may be suitably augmented to a limited extent with the help of research grants made by AERB. • AERB funds for selected research projects will be made available to members of faculties of universities and other research organizations. • Proposals from persons who apply in individual capacity and not through organizations will not be considered. • All applications for grants should be made through the Head of the Organization in which the project is proposed to be carried out.
Tenure The normal duration of a research scheme would be two to three years from the date of the issue of sanction. Financial grants will be made on an annual basis. The progress of the projects will be reviewed for renewal of the projects.
Procedure for Applying • Ten copies of the application for research proposals for the year should be submitted to Member Secretary, Committee for Safety Research Programmes (CSRP), Atomic Energy Regulatory Board, Niyamak Bhavan, Anushakti Nagar, Mumbai-400 094 on or before November 30. This is for funding in the ensuing financial year. • The Head of the Organization in which the proposed work is to be carried out should endorse at least one copy of the proposal sent to AERB. • The proposer and the organization in which the work will be carried out will be required to accept the terms and conditions.
Consolidated Terminal Reports • Every investigator must submit five copies of a consolidated terminal report within three months of the terminal date of the project to the Member Secretary of the CSRP. • The consolidated report should be a self- contained complete document and not a compilation of papers published. • Two copies of all the papers published/submitted for publication based on work done under the AERB project should also be sent along with this report.
Components of Research Grants • Basically, AERB will fund the research project for items such as equipment, consumables, stipends for staff exclusively employed for the project, and computation charges and other contingencies that may be required to complete the project successfully. • Only those items including equipment, which are essential for carrying out the project effectively and expeditiously are granted by AERB. • Grants for foreign travel will not be provided. • No payments are made to the Principal Investigator and additional members of the faculty who may be working as co-investigators. The categories of staff granted under the project are separately indicated in the sanction.
