“The strategically planned research does
have positive impact on socio economic aspects of the lives of people as
well as on the physical environment,” Prof Dr Javed Hassan Rizvi,
Vice-Chancellor, Sir Syed University of Engineering and Technology, SSUET, remarked
while chairing a meeting with the Ph.D faculty of the university on September
1.
“The outcome and findings of the research
can be achieved through presentations at scientific and professional
conferences and meetings, publishing research and professional journals and
magazines,” he stressed.
Reviewing the SSUET’s research development
activities, the Vice-Chancellor was of the view that research activity enhances
quality of education and such an approach will can be of immense benefit for
the career of PhD students.

conduct research and explore possibilities for utilization of innovative
research for industry development,” he emphasized
It was proposed in the meeting that
