UGC-BSR Faculty Fellowship Scheme

UGC-BSR Faculty Fellowship Scheme

About UGC-BSR Faculty Fellowship Scheme ( under THE MHRD / UGC – PROGRAMME ON “STRENGTHENING OF BASIC SCIENCE RESEARCH (BSR) IN UNIVERSITIES” )

The quality of an university depends on the quality of the faculty in the university who will be able to attract the best of the students for higher education & research. In the pursuit of increasing output of quality Ph.Ds throughout India, it is planned to utilize the services of talented faculty members who have a record of qualified Ph.Ds in a sustained manner in their career and who are likely to superannuate within a year. The superannuation of teachers at varying ages ranging from 58 years to 62 years in State Universities and their affiliated Colleges has further depleted the scientifically producing manpower who may be at the peak of contribution of Science and Technology. With a view to provide opportunity for continuance of research contributions by talented Science and Technology teachers who are nearing superannuation in State Universities of Basic Science Research in universities has evolved the “UGC-BSR Faculty Fellowship Scheme”. The scheme is also applicable to superannuating teachers of Central Universities.
