BURDC's Recent Activities
Welcome to BURDC
_As the premier state university in the Bicol Region, the Bicol
University (BU) is mandated to perform the four-fold functions of
instruction, research, extension, and production. To operationalize
its research function, the BU Research and Statistics Center (BURSC)
was created on January 1, 1977. Its mandates are to initiate,
undertake, coordinate and integrate the research efforts of the
University in relation to the national and regional development goals.
The R & D thrusts of the Bicol University are focused on the
priority commodity/areas set by the national/regional research agencies
and that of the University. Outside of these assigned priorities are
institutional researches being undertaken by the University faculty and
personnel. The Center also maintains a databank of relevant
information supportive to administration and management of the
University.
By virtue of BOR Resolution No. 30, series of 2002, the BURSC was renamed to the BU Research and Development Center (BURDC), giving direct emphasis to the important role and contribution of BU to the regional and national development through leading edge, innovative, and responsive researches. The function of the Center is research administration and management while research implementation is lodged in the college/unit.
