Implementation

Moreover, it has been observed that the students, who have proficient research papers available in their names, possess a maximum chance to get a scholarship to study in the top universities of the world. Hence IEM has started hosting more than 45 Scopus Indexed International Conferences where the faculties and students are encouraged to publish their research and project works.
  • This great initiative not only enhances publication numbers but also motivates students as well as faculties to ensure enriched research-based practice and knowledge production. Students are encouraged to publish at least one research paper based on their final year project in order to get their course completion certificate. Different incentive policies are introduced to draw the interest of the faculty members towards research like incentives for journal publication & book chapters. The registration fees towards these conferences are also reimbursed by the institute.
