its inception. Proper research environment has been created by appointing eminent scholars,
establishing research laboratories, deputing scholars under cultural exchange programme,

prizes for original research. In order to promote research, the university has recognized 48
national level institutions for undertaking research in different disciplines. In all, 1112 candidates
are registered for Ph.D. of which 479 are with fellowships. For monitoring the research activities,
the university convenes the meeting of the Post Graduate Council periodically. In the preceding

amounting to Rs. 390 million. The research funding was obtained from government sources
and agencies like Advant India Ltd., AICTE, CSIR, DAM Hampi, DAT, DANIDA, DBT,
DST, EEC, ICAR, UGC, Canadian International Development Agency, ICSSR, ICMR, and
Ford Foundation. University has earmarked Rs. one million per year for funding research by
junior faculty. For quality research, facilities have been created like National Single Crystal
Diffractometer Facility – in Physics, National Facility for Drosophila Genetic Stocks – in
Zoology, Electron Probe Micro Analyzer – in Geology, Seed Pathology lab – in Applied Botany,
National Centre for History of Science, Oriental Research Institute, Multimedia laboratory in
Kannada Studies and Digitization of the Library.
There is a provision for limited number of Junior Research Fellowships for pursuing M.Phil/
Research Degree. The university has instituted 30 research fellowships every year to SC/
ST students and faculty improvement fellowship to some SC/ST teachers. Many university
departments are involved in collaborative research at national level and have international
collaborations also.
