Toward the Development of Research Management System for Faculties in Rajabhat Universities

Abstract

            The main research objectives were to develop the components and indicators of a research management system and to study the current and preferred states of the research management system for faculties in Rajabhat Universities. In Stage 1, seven specialists considered and justified the research management system’s components and indicators. Administrators, academic staff, and supporting staff in Rajabhat Universities assessed the current and preferred states of the research management system. It was revealed that the current state of the system was below the preferred state in all aspects, i.e., input, process, output, and feedback. Therefore, it is a must for the managements of Rajabhat Universities to take immediate actions to improve the system.
