Research grants are awarded to Departments/Faculties only for research projects that involve research students and the funding is normally restricted to capital items.

In establishing priorities for a research grant the Campus Committee is guided by the following considerations:-
(i) The urgency of the programme/projects
(ii) The contribution it is likely to make to the Caribbean region
(iii) The likely effect on the further development of graduate studies
(iv) Manpower needs within and outside of the University.
