                                   Setting  of  priorities.  In  setting  the  R  and  E  priorities  and
                            agenda  the  institution  should  consider  its  national  and  regional
                            thrusts and mandates.  It should also consider the information and
                            feedback from various agencies and source such as:


                                       •    National Agencies.  The national priorities set by the
                                          various  agencies    are  usually  referred  to  and  serve  as
                                          basis  for  setting  R  and  E  priorities  and  agenda  of  an
                                          institution of higher learning.  These include the DOST,
                                          Science      and     Technology       Agenda      for    National

                                       •    Local Government Units.           Aside from the above, the
                                          institution  should  be  sensitive  to  the  priorities  set  by
                                          various local government units in the province and the

                                          and  international  funding  agencies.    Through  their  R

                          Section 1.  Preparation of Research Proposal

                                         The making of the research and development plans starts
                                 when  the  Director  of  Research  calls  for  an  annual  research
                                 proposal  review.  Interested faculty researchers create  capsule
                                 proposals in line with the University’s current research thrust/s
                                 and  other  fields  of  interest.    Faculty  researchers  having  the
                                 same field of interest may form a research program consisting of
                                 various  projects  and  studies.    Otherwise,  a  researcher  may
                                 prepare his/her own project/study proposal in accordance with
                                 the University’s current thrust or with their respective fields of
                                 interest.  The proponent submits the capsule research proposal
                                 thru proper endorsement to the Research Director.  Appendix 1
