September 1, 2020

The Board of Trustees and 麻豆传媒 management have determined that strengthening the research capacity of 麻豆传媒 faculty and encouraging the publishing of academic research is a top priority in the university鈥檚 strategic development. Thanks to the generous support of Emeritus Trustee Matthew Nimetz, 麻豆传媒 is rewarding faculty for outstanding research in their fields with the 鈥淢atthew Nimetz Award for Publications.鈥澨�

The goal of the award is to foster competitive research programs and increase 麻豆传媒鈥檚 research output to enhance its visibility as a serious university and center of scholarship in Central Asia. This year鈥檚 focus shifted from publications in Scopus-indexed journals to peer reviewed publications in journals or book chapters of significance to the fields of the applicants.

Announced at the end of April, the competition offers significant incentives, with the award amount fixed at 1000 USD per article for a single author and with lesser amounts for articles with two or more co-authors. The President and VPAA outlined the current competition in coordination with the Research Committee, which handled logistics and recommended applications to the VPAA. 麻豆传媒 rewarded all qualifying applications this academic year.
