Research directions and activities
Research is an integral part of the IAAS system. Besides the course works, the faculty members and students of the institute actively engaged in research activities. Though IAAS is principally mandated for teaching of agricultural science, it has been implementing numbers of internally or externally funded research projects in agriculture and veterinary sciences. As a separate research unit DORP is in operation to conduct and monitor such projects. An independent account and operating procedure has been maintained for this unit. The institute offers scholarship to students for M.Sc. as well as Ph.D. researches on competitive basis. All the research activities at IAAS are coordinated through the DORP. Funding support for the research activities includes IAAS own fund as well as external funding from national and international organizations. The research findings are published in the Journal of Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science (J. Inst. Agric. Anim. Sci.) which is an annual publication of IAAS.

Recently DORP has successfully completed following research projects:
