The Higher
Education Commission of Pakistan aims at strengthening academia and industry
linkage and has initiated a program “Establishment of Technology
Development Fund for Academia and Industry Joint Venture Projects to Introduce
New Technologies in Pakistan”. The project has already completed two
rounds of application and HEC has awarded TDF grants to 126 proposals out of
392 received. The 3rd call for proposals has already been
advertised and the last date of proposals is August 30, 2018.
I am pleased to
share with you that we are holding a one day seminar regarding Technology
Development Fund (TDF) on July 03, 2018 at Abdul Wali Khan University
Mardan. The officials from Higher Education Commission of Pakistan
(HEC) will enlighten the audience on how to pursue with Technology Development
Fund (TDF). The seminar is intended to create awareness amongst the researchers
and faculty of specially AWKUM and in general all the universities of Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa (KP) which, indeed, is a step forward to bridge the gap between
academia and industry.
Therefore, I am
taking this opportunity to cordially invite you to participate in the
seminar. Please share the details of participants with us at oric@awkum.edu.pk latest
