The UTM ASCEND 2030 Research Grant Criteria Workshop was organised to review UTM’s existing research grant landscape, including grant categories, implementation systems, support programmes, effectiveness, implementation issues and areas for improvement. The workshop also focused on developing proposed criteria and concepts for new research grants that support UTM ASCEND 2030, strengthen the University’s international reputation and visibility, contribute to QS Ranking components, and deliver targeted research outcomes. The findings will serve as key input for the preparation of the UTM ASCEND 2030 Research Grant Proposal Paper for the University’s consideration.
