Higher education institutions are the resources of the country, which are responsible for the production of graduates to feed into the labor market of the country. They also serve as a source of new knowledge to convey to the society through the production quality researches that are efficient for the technical implementation under the policy focus of the National Economic and Social Development Plan, National Research Development Plan, and University Development Plan. As a result, higher education institutions have to manage to promote and support instructors, researchers, and staff to build the capacity to do research, as well as promote research and networking with other external institutions to jointly produce quality researches and creative works that meet the needs of the wider society and bring benefits to the public.
