INTRODUCTION
OBJECTIVES
Academic publication has now become a
crucial demand in various institutions and bodies.
It is somehow used as a benchmark of the prestige and performance of a personnel in various
institutions. Through publication, a university or
institution will get multiple citations in journals
from all over the world, which in the long run will
elevate the institution's name and credibility.
The proposed program is designed to achieve the
following objectives:
For a university, it is generally known that
the world ranking system uses publication as one
of the measuring tools to rank a university. Publication also is an indicator of the number and
quality of research activities taking place in a particular university. Therefore, apart from research,
academic writing and publishing activities have
become the main priority in all universities across
the world.
Seminar on Publication 2015 will be the
third seminar of its kind. In the last two years,
this seminar managed to grab the attention from
both academic and non academic participants.
This year, Seminar on Publication will be conducted in two days so that ample emphasis could be
given to statistics and referencing software lessons. Slots on book publication are also included
to cater for participants who are interested in
translating their writing into a book.
• To further fortify the knowledge on academic
writing skills among academics, researchers,
medical experts and scholars
• To encourage and promote journal writing and
publishing activities among academics and non
academics
• To give further exposure to participants regard. ing journal impact factor
• To give some guidance to participant on softwares commonly used for publication
• To give some guidelines to participants on what
can become a book and the step-by-step process of. book publication
• To build and expand academic and professional
linkages with academics, researchers, medical
experts and scholars
