PUBLICATIONS AND PATENTS

In the present context where globalization has become a reality one needs to have autonomy with accountability. One need to develop the competence to make ethical and value added decisions and should be directed towards the institutional commitment. It consists of two major components (i) Quality of Teaching and (ii) Contribution towards generation of knowledge (Research) and these two aspects should be pursued together. Those who choose this path with a selfless attitude have found success and every goal fulfilled. The NITH need to set a benchmarks in terms of student satisfaction level, number of publications, citations, awards, sponsored projects and contribution to institutional management towards brand building, extension activities, revenue generation etc. Today the quality of publication and citations is measured by converting them into business propositions like patents, copyrights, involvement in national development activities etc. The National Institute of Technology, Hamirpur (HP) is providing many facilities for the students and faculty to engage themselves in research activities.
