HEC is in a process to formulate the new research policy for higher education sector to keep a balance between basic and applied research. In the new policy, the main focus will be on the marketable research that would benefit the economy and community. In this process all the stakeholders is being consulted. Once approved by the Governing Body of the HEC, the new policy will be communicated to the universities and will be published on HEC website as well.
