Research: 1. Well-defined sObjectives THE UNIVERSITY RESEARCH AGENDA After more than a century, the Polytechnic University of the Philippines continues to perform significant role in nation-building and it remains steadfast in its resolve to participate in the national and global academic area. The current university administration, with Dr. Emanuel De Guzman, strengthens and highlights even further the role of the university in the production of important knowledge, information and ideas as aptly reflected in the University’s vision of becoming and EPISTEMIC COMMUNITY. In this regard, the University adopts a clear, practical and realizable University Research Agenda (URA) meant rand calculated to: (1) Unify the direction and framework of the research activities of the University; (2) Align the research efforts of the University with the thrust and priorities of the national government agencies, such as the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), the National Economic and Development Agency (NEDA), Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and other; and (3) Generate researches, scientific innovations, speculative and theoretical paradigms which are expected to drive economic, technological development. The University Research Agenda (URA) is categorized into five general themes, to wit: (1) peace, security and poverty reduction; (2) accelerating infrastructure development; (3) competitive industry and entrepreneurship; (4) social and cultural development; and (5) conservation, protection and rehabilitation of the environment towards sustainable development. In order to achieve the University Research Thrusts and endeavors, the Office of the Vice President for Research, Extension, Planning and Development is structured on the premise of fulfilling its: Vision – Towards a relevant-focused research program and result-oriented extension development plan. Mission – The OVPREPD shall institutionalize research and extension as major undertakings of the University. Functions – The OVPREPD shall: Provide leadership in strategic planning in research and extension; Assist the University in the generation of resources needed to support its research and extension thrust; Coordinate short-term and medium-term research and extension program planning and implementation with the College Deans and Campus Directors; Establish strong linkages with other agencies to promote the research and extension programs of the University; and Plan and implement a human resource development program for research and extension. The CCIS Research Agenda 1 The CCIS RU is the research arm of the College of Computer and Information Sciences. The college submits itself to the alignment of its research thrust to that of the needs of the University, the community and the industry. The CCIS RU produces research work on the topics related to the curricular programs of the college to enhance the professional capability of the faculty as well as the learning capabilities of the students. The research unit provides specialized topics that serve as a reference material for research studies within and outside the academic community. 2015 UNIVERSITY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT MANUAL CCIS Research Policy Statement It is the policy of the college to help encourage research primarily among the faculty members and the students as well. This can be realized with research packages through institutional support mechanisms coming from the university. It includes technical/nontechnical services which are built-in features in the university research system. Definition of CCIS Research The term research is defined as a process of analyzing and finding out relationships among several factors in a given system based on reliable data or information. On the other hand, a study is a process of drawing up recommendations to improve the performance of a given system taking into consideration relationships among the various factors in the system, and future considerations of these factors, all based on the reliable data or information. Both research and study involve the collection of generation of data/information and analysis of these data in relation to the various factors considered in the analysis. 2 The research to be undertaken by the CCIS RU shall be generated through any of the following: 1. Topic conceptualized and proposed by a faculty, which is needed to enhance the academic standing of the department. 2. A topic conceptualized and proposed by a student of a group of students to satisfy requirements in their academic subjects that will enhance the academic standing of the College which can be improved by the faculty adviser as the co-author. 3. An outside client, be it a private or a government institution, which seeks the services of the Department concerned to conduct research or study on a topic relevant to the academic program. On the top of the criteria set forth in by the University Research Manual, CCIS research should meet the following area-based criteria: 1. The researches can be deemed qualified if they merit significance about their applicability in the chosen focus areas enumerated in the CCIS research agenda. 2. The researchers are independent inquiry to prove, modify, enhance or develop existing/non-existing theories, beliefs, and body of knowledge or can be a continuum of previous unstructured researches that furthers investigations. 3. It follows the criteria, format and other requirements as defined in the University Research Manual so it gain acceptance for institutional support. CCIS researches should fit into these requirements as a necessity for proper endorsement to OVPRD – RMO for material and financial support. Though the colleges do not discourage unqualified researches since we believe that these may become springboards for inspirations to full-blown researches in the future. As reflected, CCIS researches maybe initiated by person/s or entity/ies according to the qualifications brought forth in the University Research Manual. THE CCIS RESEARCH AGENDA The CCIS Research Agenda (CCIS RA) is conceived in accordance with the University Research Agenda, with special attention on technology enhancement and the PUP philosophy, visions, missions, and goals are also factored into the formulation of the CCIS RA, as they reflect the overall mandate of the University.

Proposals submitted will be evaluated by the University Research Evaluation Committee (UREC) according to the research program areas in which they belong (Please refer to Chapter 1 for the University Research Agenda). The UREC is composed of seven members, namely: Chair: The Vice President for Research, Extension, Planning and Development 15 Vice-Chair: The Director of research institute relevant to the proposal/s under consideration Members: Chief of the OVPREPD Office/Center relevant to the proposal/s under consideration; Two (2) faculty experts from the colleges/branches/campuses; Two (2) industry experts relevant to the proposal/s under consideration. Because of the differing academic expertise required in each research program area, each will have two (2) UREC faculty experts of its own. These faculty experts will be selected by the VPREPD upon the recommendation of the college deans concerned. Only the VPREPD will sit regularly in all the UREC meetings. Industry experts will be invited to sit in the Committee to be recommended by the college dean. The Director of the Research and Extension Management Office (REMO) shall constitute the Committee’s secretariat. Proposals that have satisfactorily met the UREC standards based on the approved criteria will be endorsed by the VPREPD to the University Executive Committee for University funding (See Appendix A - Technical Evaluation Guide for Research Proposal) The second task of the UREC is to review the terminal research reports of the completed projects. The UREC shall give their assessments of the report within two weeks after its submission by the proponent/s. The UREC approval is one of the three requirements before the proponent/s can be paid their honoraria. Call for Research Proposals The OVPREPD shall encourage and invite faculty and staff from colleges, branches departments and other offices to submit research proposals for possible funding through call for papers in university publications, PUP website and other means. Call for Research Proposals starts on the 1st quarter of the year. Researchers must have their proposals evaluated first at the department and college/branch levels for possible endorsement to the REMO. The REMO shall post acceptance of research proposals online through the official PUP website under the OVPREPD link and send an acceptance letter to the official email address of the proponent. The project proponent/s is/are required to submit the research proposal following the prescribed format (See Appendix B - PUP Research Proposal Guide). REMO will conduct initial technical evaluation of the submitted proposals based on the prescribed format before its endorsement to the UREC. If found not in compliance with the prescribed format, the proposal will be returned to the proponent/s. The proponent submits his/her research proposal in three copies to the Department for endorsement to the College/Campus/Extension Committee for evaluation. If found to be worthy of endorsement, such proposal will be forwarded by the College Dean or Campus/Extension Director to REMO for categorization by program area. Part of the proposal to be submitted are the following which can be found in the appendices: • Terms of Reference • Line Item Budget • Schedule of Outputs/Tranche Releases • Work Plan 16 The research proponent/s must ensure that biosafety concerns are addressed prior to the approval of the proposal. All research proposals must comply with the biosafety indexes pursuant to Executive Order No. 430 otherwise known as Creating the National Committee on Biosafety of the Philippines and its mandates (See URM Appendix C – Executive Order No. 430). Review and Evaluation Proposals that fall within the scope of the University Research Agenda will be classified according to which research program area they belong. A University Research Evaluation Committee ( UREC) specific for each program area will be formed to review and evaluate the proposals submitted. The proponents/s will be asked to present the proposal to the Committee. After studying the proposals individually, the UREC members will convene for deliberations. A final decision will be made when all issues relating to the proposal being evaluated have been discussed and resolved. The project proponent/s may be summoned by the UREC, if necessary, to clarify points that may be raised in the deliberations Proposals that require revisions will be sent back to the proponents with suggestions from the UREC. Revised drafts must be submitted to the UREC not later than one month after the proponent’s receipt of the UREC’s evaluation. The project proponent/s shall be notified of the evaluation results at least a week after the UREC’s quarterly meeting. All communications from the UREC regarding evaluation results shall be made with strict confidentiality. If, for some reasons, the University cannot finance the proposed research, it shall, through the REMO, purposely search, negotiate and mobilize sources of research funds from both local and foreign institutions. Whenever available, the particular research guidelines of prospective funding agency/ies will be provided to the proponent/s. It is the OVPREPD-REMO’s responsibility to ensure that the proponent/s have satisfied the minimum requirements set by the external funding agency/institution before the University President endorses the proposal. Endorsement by the UREC Proposals applied for University funding and have passed UREC screening will be endorsed to the University Executive Committee for final approval and inclusion in the proposed University budget. On some occasions, the University Executive Committee members may ask the project proponent/s to appear before them to clarify points pertinent to the proposal/s. As a general policy, the completion of any previously approved University research project by a proponent is a requirement for the approval of any new application for University funding and/ or endorsement for external funding by the same. The Executive Committee (EXECOM) has the final approval of the proposal/s. It has the authority to disapprove the proposal and may ask the UREC to reevaluate it based on the comments of the EXECOM members. Approval of the Research Proposal Once the EXECOM approved the research proposals, the proponent/s and PUP will enter into a research contract or Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) before the release of funds and implementation of the research project. The agreement will be the basis of implementation of the research project. 17 Research Funding The proposal passes through university/internal or (2) external. two routes for possible funding: (1) 1. University Funding If considered for university funding, the UREC will meet and conduct an initial interview with the proponent/s. This will be followed by the UREC deliberation and decision-making. If found to be workable and feasible for university support, the proposal will be forwarded to the EXECOM for approval. Upon approval for direct university support through the PUP General Appropriations, a. b. Contract signing between the researcher/s and the University follows; The project/research is then implemented/conducted and completed within a given period as stipulated in the contract; c. d. A quarterly Progress Report and a Terminal Report shall be submitted to REMO; The completed project shall be submitted for patenting/copyrighting to the IPMO before its presentation in a conference and publication in any research journal; and e. The publishable copy of the completed research shall be submitted for publication in university/external refereed journal. 2. External Funding If considered for external funding, the University shall endorse the research proposal to external funding agencies. Once approved by the funding agency, a MOA/Contract signing between the university and the funding agency will be conducted. The guidelines and procedures of the funding agency on research grants will be followed, provided it will not violate any policies of the university. If there are no guidelines prescribed by the funding agency, the university guidelines will be followed. 18 Summary of the University Research Process 19 20 3. Systematic and Effective Procedures CCIS Research Process The general steps to be followed in developing a research undertaking are shown below: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Conceptualization Review and Evaluation CCIS and PUP RDMO approval Logistic Search Conduct of Research Presentation of Result and Recognition Conceptualization/ Call for Research Proposals Faculty Research At the midterm part of the first semester each year, the CCIS RU office through the office of the CCIS Dean, shall notify all college constituents about the acceptance of research proposals for endorsement to the OVPREPD of other funding/ granting institutions to which the College in concurrence with the university has entered into MOA. Faculty members, administrative staff, and students if applicable, shall receive announcements through a memorandum of through e-mail postings an invitation for them to submit research proposals for the coming year. Research who wish to avail of university research support must prepare their proposals early to beat the annual deadline of submission at the college level, which is every 7th day of October of each year. Any proposal submitted after this date will be included in the following year’s batch of proposals to be evaluated. The proposal must be endorsed by the proponent’s college dean or department chair before it is submitted to the OVPREPD-RMO. While the project proponent/s is/are free to use any currently accepted format, the following parts should be present in research proposal as prescribed in the URM: I. II. III. IV. V. VI. VII. VIII. IX. Project Identification Contains information such as the project title, project proponent/ coproponent/ other researchers, position and department/ college/ office of the proponent/s, program area of the research (according to the classification in the University Research Agenda), cooperating agency/ies, project duration, total project cost, sources of funds and other support. The Research Problem Contains a detailed statement or description of the research problem, objectives, hypothesis (if any), brief background, theoretical/ conceptual framework (for theory-building researches), definition of terms Review of Related Literature Methodology (or Methods and Materials) Plan for Analysis (incl. expected results) Working Bibliography Proposed Budget Phasing of the Project/ Timetable Bio-data/ Profile of the Project Proponent/s, Researchers, and Research Assistants 21 Student Research The student or students concerned submit a proposal to the faculty who is requiring the research work. The faculty member evaluates the proposal and submits the same to the CCIS RU for evaluation and approval. Outside Client Upon invitation of an outside client, the CCIS RU shall initiate the preparation of research proposal in coordination with the Advisory Committee, The AC shall form a research team from among the faculty members and students of the CCIS. The AC may also tap outside consultant to be members of the study team if their expertise are so required and that such expertise are not available within the CCIS. Said team shall be evaluated by the AC for quality control and shall have the approval of the Dean and the PUP R&D. Review and Evaluation All proposals submitted must be classified according to the focus areas identified in the CCIS Research Agenda. The CCIS RU will determine the proposal’s nature as to its classification in the research program in the University Research Agenda for possible endorsement and qualification. The CCIS RU and the AC members shall individually study the proposals, after which they will convene again for deliberations. A final decision will be made when all issues relating to the proposal being evaluated have been discussed and resolved. The project proponent/s may be summoned by the CCIS RU, if necessary, to clarify points that may be raised in the deliberations. Those proposals that require revisions will be sent back to the proponents with suggestions from the CCIS RU. Revised drafts must be submitted to the CCIS RU before December 7 of the same year. The project proponent/s shall be notified of the evaluation results within the sixtyday evaluation period (October 7- December 7) of the CCIS RU. All Communications from the CCIS RU regarding evaluation results shall be made with strict confidentiality. It is the OVPREPD-RMO-UREC’s responsibility to ensure the quality of the research proposals submitted to external agencies to give them an edge in the competition for scarce research funding. Endorsement of the RMO for approval Approval of Proposals Proposals that pass the evaluation of the AC shall be forwarded to the Dean for recognition and approval. It shall be then forwarded to the research chief after gaining approval from the Office of the Vice President for Research, Extension, Planning and Development. Logistics Search Since research needs financial resources, it is the responsibility of the faculty and/or student to initiate the search for finding. Since there is no assured budget from the university itself for these undertakings, the research proponents should see to it that the cost is kept to a minimum. Data gathering and analysis can be done by the proponents themselves. Expenses on supplies and materials will be shouldered by the proponents. If there is an available fund from the university. The proponents should make the necessary request to the PUP Research Management Office through the Dean and CCIS RU. 22 Actual Conduct of Research Faculty and student research projects can be started immediately upon approval of the Dean and VPREPD as per recommendation of the research Coordinator. The proponents shall, at the inception of the project, prepare a work program indicating the activities to be undertaken and the corresponding time duration; submit the same to the CCIS RU for monitoring purposes. For the projects with financial assistance, proponents should be responsible in the financial disbursements and accounting. Documentation and Plagiarism Documentation The researcher/ writer shall at all times strictly abide with the proper documentation of the sources of information used or mentioned in his/her research or any scholar paper. The author is encouraged to use any of the following sourcing styles or any documentation appropriate to the discipline where he/she belongs, and as approved in his/her college. 1. The Modern Language Association (MLA) system the languages and the humanities. The Chicago Manual of Style (Chicago) is sometimes used as an alternative to MLA style. 2. The American Psychological Association (APA) for the social and behavioral sciences researches. 3. The Council of Biology Editors (CBE) for the sciences and mathematics. 4. The Columbia Guide to Online Style (CGOS) for citing on-line sources in the humanities and sciences. See http://www.columbia.edu/cu/cup/cgos. Plagiarism If the researcher claims ownership of written words or ideas which are not his/her own, he/she commits plagiarism which is a form of intellectual dishonesty. Plagiarism is stealing of intellectual property of other writers and is not allowed in the University. The University adopts the following description by Kimberly and Cotesta(1998:60): It is important to point out that simply copying slabs of information or sentences from texts, even if the source of the information is referenced, is not a proper way of writing…. and is not acceptable. You must cite the views expressed in books articles, but these must also be in your own words and the structure of the piece of writing must also be your own. It must be noted that plagiarism is reprehensible and is punishable by law. Sec. 172 of RA 8293 or the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines explicitly states that intellectual creations in the literary and artistic domain are protected from the moment of creation. These intellectual creations include books, pamphlets, articles, periodicals, newspapers, lectures, addresses, dissertations prepared for oral delivery, and other literary, scholarly, scientific and artistic works. Researchers and faculty of the University are expected to observe high level of academic integrity by explicitly acknowledging their sources of information both published (whether in print, electronic media) and unpublished (e.g. theses or dissertations, speeches, interviews, notes etc.). University faculty must promote, at all times, intellectual honesty and academic integrity by appropriately citing original works of other scholars/authors and not attribute them as his/her own. Presentation of Result and Recognition 23 When research is completed, the proponents shall present the findings and recommendations as well as the methodology used to the Advisory Committee. If the AC finds it meritorious, it will issue a certificate of recognition, to be noted by the Research Coordinator, the Dean and the VPREPD, which acknowledges it as an accepted research study in the CCIS. Research/Study Storage Hard copies of all approved proposals and recognize researches shall be stored in the CCIS RU. The CCIS RU shall maintain and make it available to the users who need reference materials for classroom assignments, other research and studies. It will be beneficial is a soft copy of the research is also available as well as an abstract of the research.

The following are the types of university research, based on their fund sources and terms of support given: 1. Internally-Funded Research Internally funded researches are university-sponsored projects that have been incorporated in the budget proposal for the year. To be eligible for direct University funding, research proposals have to be submitted to the University Evaluation Committee (UREC) not later than first week of October of every year for screening and endorsement of the Committee. Upon approval of the University President through the recommendation of the Vice President for Research, Extension, Planning and Development (VPREPD), the actual funding for the approved project proposals will be provided on the fiscal year that follows. A memorandum of Agreement (MOA) shall be entered into by the University and the proponent/s of the research project stipulating both the extent of support granted to the researcher/s and the project deliverables expected from the proponent. 27 The monitoring of University-funded rests on the Research and Extension Management Department (REMD). Disbursement of fund is subject to existing University accounting and auditing rules. 2. Externally-Funded Research 2.1 Funding Agency Supported Research Proposals submitted to the REMD that have passed the screening or peer review, will be endorsed by the University to outside agencies for possible funding. In addition, REMD shall post titles and project descriptions in the internet to attract would-be sponsors. The REMD will endorse eligible proposals to the proper agencies in accordance with their requirements and research priorities. Project monitoring rests on the REMD, although the proponents are not barred from reporting directly to their funding agency. Utilization of funds from external sources shall be decided by both the research proponents and funding agency to be stipulated in the MOA between the University and the funding agency. 2.2 Commissioned Research The University, or any external agency through the University, may commission a faculty member, an administrative staff member, or a group of faculty members/administrative staff to conduct research on a particular problem. Faculty members and/or administrative staff commissioned to conduct the research should prepare the proposal and submit the same to the UREC for evaluation and endorsement to the commissioning institution/agency. In the case of a faculty member or a college who gets or is invited and commissioned to conduct the research, this should be properly reported to and coordinated by the REMD. A MOA shall be entered into by the heads of both the University and the commissioning agency, or their authorized representatives, stipulating the obligations of the parties involved. Project monitoring rest on the REMD, although the proponent is not barred from reporting directly to the commissioning agency. Disbursement of fund is subject to existing University accounting and auditing rules. Project Budget Allocation A research proposal submitted to the UREC should be accompanied by a detailed budget, which must be strictly followed once the proposal is approved. No allotment for one item may be moved to another item, unless otherwise approved by the authorized finance officers. The proponent may not be given additional budget beyond what is stipulated in the MOA. 28 For all types of externally funded project, at least ten percent (10%) of the total project cost goes to the University to cover administrative costs. Support, Funding and Incentives Subject to the availability of resources, the following support and incentives may be granted by the University: 1.
