THE AGENCY IN-HOUSE RESEARCH REVIEW

The Agency In-House Research Review (AIHRR) is an annual activity being spearheaded by the Research Directorate under supervision of the Office of the Vice President for Research, Extension and Linkages. It is an event where results of researches of the University are presented. This serves as the clearing house of the University in endorsing researches for presentation in external conferences, symposia and other similar events.

Specifically, the AIHRR aims to:

1. review completed researches conducted for the previous year;

2. identify technologies/information that are either for verification, commercialization, or dissemination/promotion; and

3. select research papers that can be presented in external conferences and other scientific gatherings.

In previous years, the AIHRR include all researches conducted regardless of their status. However, this year, only completed researches are to be reviewed. The undergraduate thesis competition is, likewise, added as one of the highlights of the 2014 AIHRR.
