Abstract

In Malaysia, establishment of the National Higher Education Strategic Plan (NHESP) has initiated a national effort to drive research and development (R&D) excellence from within the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE). Launched in August 2007 by Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, the NHESP consists of seven components, including Improving Teaching and Learning; Accessibility to Higher Education; Internationalization; Strengthening Institutions of Higher Learning; and Enhancing Research and Innovation. Because MOHE is a major grant provider to Malaysian research institutions, establishment of the NHESP has made it possible to systematically set comprehensive guidelines for management of funding, standards for research conduct, instruments for research performance, and standardized reporting of research and innovation output. This new approach in the management of research initiatives at the ministry level has created positive ramifications for universities, research management centers, and research leaders.
