Prof Dr M Alimullah Miyan research institute after the name of its founder Vice-Chancellor. The Institute opened formally from 1 January 2019 and I would express my gratitude that the University has appointed me as its first Chairman. As I understand, MAMRI is supposed to organize the research activity of the University including undergraduate research. On behalf of the Institute I seek cooperation from the faculties and students for a successful period of research output.
