Research Performance Measurement

Research performance measurement involves evaluating how effectively research activities achieve their goals. It uses specific indicators—such as the number of publications, citations, research funding, innovations, or societal impacts—to assess the quality, productivity, and influence of research efforts. This helps institutions, funding agencies, and researchers understand strengths, identify areas for improvement, and make informed decisions about resource allocation and strategic planning. Essentially, it's a systematic way to gauge the success and impact of research work beyond just conducting experiments or studies.
