Research Agenda and Policies
MCU Research Agenda 2023-2026
The research agenda of the university is a comprehensive strategy or framework outlining the institution’s research-related priorities, goals, and objectives. Typically, this agenda is created and implemented to advance knowledge, contribute to academic excellence, address societal challenges, and foster innovation. It serves as a road map for the university’s research endeavors. It directs allocating resources, faculty efforts, and opportunities for interdisciplinary research collaboration by the Lead and Support Programs/Colleges. The research agenda is disseminated to the various colleges of the university so that their research can be aligned within the framework of the established research agenda.
The research agenda was primarily anchored on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of the United Nations and also based on the research priorities outlined in the National Unified Health Research Agenda (NUHRA), the Harmonized National Research and Development Agenda (HNRDA), and the National Higher Education Research Agenda (NHERA).

Research Ethics Review
IRO Process for Research Review:
- The researcher will request the requirements needed for the research review to the IRO (Institutional Research Office) Research Assistant’s email address or walk-in.
- IRO Research Assistant will forward the Research Proposal, Approval Letter, Letter of Intent and IRO General Checklist to the researcher
- Researchers complete the requirements and submit 1 (one) hard and soft copy to the IRO – Research Assistant email address.
- IRO reviews the documents submitted by the researchers and forwards the papers to the IRR (Institutional Research Review).
- IRR checks the Research Proposal and forwards it to the appropriate Review Committee: the Ethics review board (ERB) or Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) for Ethics Review.
- ERB or IACUC reviews the ethical content of the research studies and conducts deliberation, once approved IRR will forward the complete evaluation and certificate of approval to the IRO for a copy furnished of the study
- IRO will update the database for the completed research ethical proposal of the students.
