Faculty-Student Collaboration in Enhancing Research Productivity: A Study

Journal Title: International Journal of Health Sciences and Research - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

Faculty-Student collaboration in scientific publications and scientific presentations merits special attention in the context of higher education institutions. The study examines the sociology of collaboration, differences in the pattern, if any, between forms of research productivity and between institutional set-ups in the discipline of speech, language and hearing sciences. The study revealed that the students’ collaboration with faculty could be found in 56.68 percent of scientific publications and in 59.26 percent of the scientific presentations. Students preferred to collaborate with junior faculty <35 years, who were either pursuing doctoral programme or already possessed a doctorate degree. Government institutions had the highest faculty-student collaborations than the private institutions. No difference could be seen either in the extent or in the sociological pattern of faculty-student collaboration between scientific publications and scientific presentations.
