In order to encourage faculty to involve into research activities so as to get recognition in terms of filing patents and publications in refereed SCI/SSCI (Thomson Reuter) journals, GGI follows the following policy:

• Every faculty member must supervise a minimum two UG students’ major projects per academic year on a recent research topic with review of literature and experimentation/analytical analysis.
• Every faculty member must participate in one national seminar / conference / workshop ( or international conference / symposium / workshop held in India) per academic year and make a presentation on the individual’s/ student’s research activity on which the paper is based. The case will be evaluated by the R & D Committee which will meet once in every quarter of the year, with respect to the quality of the Research Paper and genuineness of the Seminar / Conference / Workshop. If recommended by the Committee the faculty member may be paid: 50% of (Conference Registration Fee + 3 tier AC return train fare to the venue of Conference) or Rs 5,000/- whichever is minimum.
• For participating in a top ranking international conference outside India the same procedure will be followed. The faculty member can attend once every 2 years. The case may be evaluated by the R & D Committee and based on the recommendation of the committee necessary seed money may be provided by the GGI. Faculty members are encouraged to apply to external agencies like DST/AICTE/UGC/CSIR/AICTE/CPDA or conference organizers for further financial assistance.
• Financial incentive of Rs 2000 (Rs Two thousand) will be given to faculty per paper published in refereed SCI/SSC (Thomson Reuter) journals (100% in case of single author, in the ratio 60:40 in the case of two authors, and 60:20:20 in case of three authors and so on).

Note: All the requests related to research funding will be routed through the R&D Committee. It is essential that the faculty mentions his/her affiliation of GGI while submitting a research paper to a conference/Journal.
