Cash Incentives for Publications

The college through the Deanery of Research & Development offered a cash incentive of Rs. 2000 for research scholars and faculty who published in Scopus and Web of Science journals. This incentive is being implemented to encourage research and promote a culture of research in the campus and the initiative of providing cash incentives for Scopus and Web of Science publications is a step towards achieving this goal. This policy will definitely have a positive impact on the research culture in campus.

Applications were called for from the faculty and research scholars. The papers submitted were closely scrutinised to ensure that predatory and cloned publications were not considered.

The cash incentives were awarded by the Honorable Minister for Information Technology, Dr Mano Thangaraj on 6th April 2023 at the International Conference on “Bridging the Digital Divide- Engaging in Imperative Policy, Capacity and Competency Building” organised by the Department of Public Administration.
