 We are pleased to inform you that public universities and private institutions of higher learning are invited to apply for the Higher Education Ministry’s special grants to conduct research on critical areas that are in close association with the community in dealing with the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Among the areas for research that are identified closely related to the community in dealing with the realities after the Movement Control (CPP) Order ends is the impact on the economy, public health, safety, tourism, trade, information technology, education and food security.

The proposal paper for the research could be carried out individually or in a group of not more than three people.

The application for this special grant is opened from April 15 to 30 this year with the research to be conducted within a six months period.

The Department of Higher Education (JPT) would be given the responsibility to coordinate the application and evaluate the research grant in determining the suitability of the research to be carried out.

The findings of the research will be evaluated by the ministry’s Research Grant Evaluation Committee and if suitable, will be tabled to the Cabinet to determine its feasibility for implementation.
