                           a.  Background


                              The Isabela State University as a premier learning institution is committed to
                              produce quality graduates in the field of agriculture, natural resources management,
                              engineering, arts and sciences, health and related disciplines. Likewise, the university’s
                              developmental role is to promote countryside development through the generation,
                              verification, adoption and commercialization of appropriate technologies and strategies
                              for sustainable development.


                              Consistent to the framework of the newly approved University R&DE council, there is a
                              need to mainstream student researches into the University R&D/E thrusts and agenda.


                              To implement the foregoing, the research department is mandated to provide mechanism
                              to assess, screen, monitor, and evaluate all proposals, on-going and completed R&DE
                              programs and projects in the University, including undergraduate and graduate thesis/
                              research problems.

                              The conduct of regular evaluation of undergraduate research should be done to serves
                              as a venue wherein significant results and accomplishments from completed researches
                              are presented and reviewed for proper recognition. Likewise potential technologies are
                              identified for further testing, verification and piloting.




                                                                               RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
