Procedures to initiate a funded research or a joint research project
Our Institute undertakes funded and Commissioned Research projects, public research and development work, and other types of projects that are conducted jointly with private enterprises. We offer total project coordination from the initial stage to the final output of the result. We also carefully assess the needs and tasks on the individual basis and create the optimal scheme for each project.
Process of research exchange
Total research expenses = A+B+C
A: Direct expenses necessary for the execution of the research (expenses directly necessary for the research such as traveling expenses, costs of fittings and appliances, supplies expenses, honoraria, etc.)
B: Indirect expenses
C: Consumption taxes (5% of (A+B))
