The ultimate goal is to build motivated and devoted scientific or scholarly community in the university.<\\/p><ul><li><a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/localhost\\/wp-content\\/uploads\\/2017\\/09\\/Research-Incentives.pdf\\\"><u>Guidelines for Research Incentives and Rewards<\\/u><\\/a><\\/li><\\/ul>\",\"align\":\"justify\",\"_padding\":{\"unit\":\"px\",\"top\":\"10\",\"right\":\"10\",\"bottom\":\"10\",\"left\":\"10\",\"isLinked\":true},\"_border_border\":\"solid\",\"_border_width\":{\"unit\":\"px\",\"top\":\"1\",\"right\":\"1\",\"bottom\":\"1\",\"left\":\"1\",\"isLinked\":true},\"_border_radius\":{\"unit\":\"px\",\"top\":\"20\",\"right\":\"20\",\"bottom\":\"20\",\"left\":\"20\",\"isLinked\":true}},\"elements\":[],\"widgetType\":\"text-editor\"},{\"id\":\"6dc4q4h\",\"elType\":\"widget\",\"settings\":{\"editor\":\"<h5><span style=\\\"color: #33cccc;\\\">Research Proposal, Research Report, Manuscript, and Policy Brief<\\/span><\\/h5><p>Over the past decades, Haramaya University has been expanding. New colleges, departments, schools, programs, research institutes and centers are emerging. These academic units are required to undertake research in their respective areas. Cognizant of this, the university has organized its research activities in thematic areas. Besides, the university has increased its national and international research collaborations. The volume of research being carried out in the university is also increasing. Therefore, it is imperative to have a uniform system of research activities. This will create a comprehensive platform for managing and sharing knowledge and experiences.
