At Daffodil International University (DIU), research is the cornerstone of our academic excellence and a driving force for innovation and impact. The Division of Research (DoR) mission is to cultivate a dynamic and sustainable research culture that empowers our faculty and students to contribute meaningfully to the global body of knowledge. It is dedicated to establishing a research ecosystem that is smooth, effective, and well-coordinated, ensuring that every researcher has the necessary support to excel.

The Division of Research (DoR) focuses on creating an enabling environment for quality research and impactful publications. Its role is to empower researchers by streamlining administrative processes, offering expert guidance, and facilitating access to external funding opportunities. This allows researchers to concentrate on producing high-quality work that meets international standards and addresses pressing global challenges.

To enhance efficiency, DoR continuously refines procedures to ensure seamless collaboration across departments, clear communication, and timely support at every stage of the research process. From the initial stages of project development to the dissemination of results, DoR provides the necessary infrastructure and advisory services to foster research excellence and innovation.

Securing external funding is a critical component of sustaining a vibrant research culture. DoR assists faculty and students in identifying funding opportunities, preparing competitive proposals, and building partnerships with industry, government agencies, and international organizations. By enabling access to these resources, DoR ensures that researchers can undertake significant projects with the potential for significant impact.

The Division of Research (DoR) also emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration. By fostering partnerships between diverse academic disciplines, DoR encourages innovative approaches to addressing complex global issues. This collaborative model enhances the depth and relevance of research, ensuring broader societal and academic impact.

As we move forward, our collective commitment to quality, collaboration, and impact will continue to elevate the research standards at DIU. Together, we will build a research ecosystem that inspires innovation and drives meaningful change.
