Abstract:
Purpose - The purpose of the study is to analyze the effects of HEC prioritization of research
policies on academic work related attitudes on the faculty members.
Design/Methodology/Approach - This study is based on primary and secondary data
collected to analyze the effects of HEC prioritization of research policies on the academic
work related attitude on the faculty members. Primary data is collected through
questionnaires that were specifically designed according to the research purpose. The
secondary data was collected through research journals, published articles, and relevant
websites. The data was analyzed and evaluated using SPSS running Friedman’s Test to form
the results.
Findings - the findings suggest a strong relationship between HEC prioritization of research
policies and the work related attitude of faculty members. This relation proves that HEC
standards and policies influence the work and responsibilities of the faculty members.
Research Limitations - This is an academic research and is limited by time constraint. It
was carried out in a limited time frame, which restricted its results and findings. The research
is also limited by the sample size as it is based on a small sample of only 200 respondents.
