  1. Sources for procurement research grants – international agencies, Government and private bodies.

  2. Introduction • Research funding is a term generally covering any funding for scientific research, in the areas of both "hard" science and technology and social science. • Sources of research funding, • corporations • government • Some small amounts of scientific research are carried out by charitable foundations. • Total research funding in most developed countries is between 1.5% and 3% of GDP

  3. Government-funded research • Many governments of developed countries provide considerable funds for scientific research as well as social science research. • Much of this is not intended to provide concrete results that may be commercialisable, although research in scientific fields may lead to results that have such potential. • Most university research is aimed at gaining publication in peer reviewed academic journals.

  4. Government-funded research allows basic science. • Government-funded research into such matters as the nature of quantum mechanics or the existence of water on Mars. • For example, Decades of research into quantum mechanics have made possible work on quantum computing, which is now expected to be an even greater leap forward in computing technology than the development of the microchip.

  5.

  11. Corporate And Private Research In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, most scientific and technological research was carried out by individual inventors using their own funds. A system of patents was developed to allow inventors a period of time to commercialize their inventions and recoup a profit, although in practice many found this difficult. In the twentieth century, scientific and technological research became increasingly systematized, as corporations developed, and discovered that continuous investment in research and development could be a key element of success in a competitive strategy. Privately-funded research is profit oriented.

  12. AICTE • The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) is a Statutory Body established by the Government of India through Act No. 52 of 1987 with a view to proper planning and coordinated development of Technical Education (TE) system throughout the Country. • Technical Education includes the fields of Engineering, Technology, Architecture, Town Planning, Management, Hotel Management & Catering Technology, Pharmacy and Applied Arts & Crafts.

  13. Schemes operated by the AICTE • Travel Grant : Enables meritorious teachers to interact at international level Conference / Seminar / Symposium etc. Teachers from AICTE approved Technical Institutions / University departments are eligible for this grant. • Seminar Grant : provides a forum for interaction of academicians and working professionals and opportunity for sharing of innovations and inventions. AICTE approved Technical Institutions / University departments are eligible for this grant. Professional bodies, registered societies, national agencies are also eligible provided that the seminar is organized in collaboration with AICTE approved Technical Institutions / University departments imparting technical education.

  14. Career Award for Young Teachers : identifies young talented teachers for promoting their professional growth by enabling them to devote maximum time in research and study with minimum teaching responsibility. • Post Graduate Scholarship Scheme : In pursuance of the policy framework for Promotion of Post-Graduate Education and Research in Technical Education as announced by Ministry of Human Resource Development, AICTE is implementing and running PG Scholarship scheme in the field of technical education for the study of post graduate students in Engineering and Technical institutions.The students who qualify GATE examination get valid score card in different subject fields and become eligible for GATE scholarship under existing PG Scholarship Scheme. A valid GATE scorer receives scholarship.
