RAC Commitee

Research Advisory Committee (RAC) is typically established within academic institutions, engaged in research activities. In Michael Job Memorial College of Education for women, the Research Advisory Committee (RAC) serves as an important entity to support and enhance research endeavours related to education. The primary purpose of an RAC is to provide guidance, oversight, and expertise to ensure the quality, relevance, and ethical conduct of research projects undertaken within the organization.

1. Composition: The RAC comprises faculty members, researchers, and possibly external experts with diverse backgrounds in education, pedagogy, psychology, curriculum development, assessment, and related fields. The committee may also include representatives from other departments within the college or from external institutions.
2. Guidance and Mentorship: The RAC provides guidance and mentorship to faculty members, researchers, and students engaged in research activities. This includes assisting with research proposal development, methodological considerations, literature reviews, data analysis techniques, and interpretation of findings.
3. Research Proposal Review: The RAC reviews research proposals submitted by faculty members, researchers, and students within MJCOE. It assesses the feasibility, significance, methodological rigor, and ethical considerations of proposed research projects, providing feedback and recommendations for improvement.
4. Ethical Oversight: Ensuring ethical conduct in research is paramount. The RAC reviews research protocols involving human subjects, ensuring compliance with ethical standards, institutional policies, and regulatory requirements. It may also provide guidance on obtaining necessary approvals from institutional review boards (IRBs) or ethics committees.
5. Resource Allocation: The RAC may play a role in allocating research resources, including funding, facilities, equipment, and research assistants. It helps prioritize research projects based on their alignment with the college’s strategic priorities, potential impact on education practice or policy, and available resources.
6. Promotion of Research Culture: The RAC works to cultivate a culture of research excellence within MJCOE. This includes organizing research seminars, workshops, conferences, and other events to facilitate knowledge sharing, collaboration, and networking among faculty members, researchers, and students.
