Hec to set up research repository.
ISLAMABAD, May 6: The Higher Education Commission (HEC) has decided to set up a research repository having a complete record of PhD theses accepted by the universities of the country, Dawn has learnt. It will be a kind of online book bank for the use of students, teachers and higher education institutions, the commission officials said.
The repository will be a mechanism for long-term preservation and archiving of PhD theses published in the local universities.
Guided by the principle that PhD theses are public information, all theses will be systematically collected from the institutions and entered into the repository.
The repository will provide a search mechanism to browse theses and dissertations by subject and source institution wise and will allow public viewing of any document through the hosting of PDFs of the full-text. Until all PDF versions are scanned, the HEC will arrange delivery of documents on request.
Where allowed by publishers, this repository will contain the full-text of research articles of Pakistani authors published in both international and local journals. If full-text hosting is not allowed, article metadata (with abstracts) with linking to the full-text on the publisher site will be made available.
Research publications in this repository will be categorized on the basis of subjects, source institutions and departments to provide an overall view of research conducted in Pakistan at various strata.
The project is being implemented with the assistance of Lund University Libraries (Sweden), pioneers in the Open Access Movement and Institutional Repositories.

Writing a good dissertation or thesis
The learning center team is at your disposal to assist you in your documentary research via our research assistance service ..
Identifying your project
Taking the time to define the right topic is a very important step in the essay process. With the answers to the 3QPOC questions, you will be able to extract the concepts that will define your subject. Mind maps can also help you to have an overview of your project. In addition, it is essential to review existing research. This should allow you to see if there is enough material to address your topic, if its scope is realistic, and if anyone has already answered your question.
The Learning Center has student papers that have been awarded an A or B grade and are not confidential. From our search portal, select "HEC PhD Theses" or "HEC Dissertations and theses" in the tab "New items-selections".
Preparing your research
To begin, make a list of keywords using dictionaries, thesauri, encyclopedias, manuals, etc. Break down each concept into a series of keywords, search for synonyms or equivalent terms. Once you have defined all your keywords, we recommend that you use Boolean operators to filter the results, combining or excluding specific words from your search "(AND/ET, NOT/SAUF, OR/OU)".
You can conduct your research using the Learning Center's resources (databases, news articles, journals, books and ebooks, dissertations and theses).
Managing your bibliographic references
Citation management software allows you to keep a database of the sources you use (books, journal articles, websites, etc.) when doing research. You can then select them when you cite your sources in your written work and automatically produce bibliographies from the citations you have included.
The Learning Center offers an article on the use of citation management software: Zotero.
Writing your bibliography
The bibliography is a very important part of your thesis. It allows you to confirm your knowledge of the subject and to recognize the people behind the ideas you have developed in your research. It also allows the reader of your work to deepen it by identifying the documents you have consulted.
The Learning Center has produced a guide to help you build your bibliography in a consistent and standardized way.
Citing bibliographic references
Plagiarism is presenting someone else's words or ideas as your own without acknowledging the source. Thus, when writing your dissertation or thesis, it is important to indicate the various sources that were used to fuel your thinking. Even when summarizing or paraphrasing information found in books, articles or web pages, you must credit the original author.
To assist you in this process, the Learning Center provides a document on plagiarism and how to cite your sources.

Program details
The phd program prepares students for a career in research and higher education.
The HEC PhD program is a full-time program that prepares students for a career in research and academia. This requires in-depth knowledge of a particular field of management research, solid training in research methods, as well as hands-on experience in collecting and analyzing data, writing and presenting papers, academic networking and publishing research.
A two phase curriculum
The HEC Paris PhD Program is an integrated PhD Program structured in two phases:
- Research Master Phase
- Doctoral Studies Phase.
The first two years of the PhD program are aimed at providing students with a strong basis to conduct research at the highest level.
Four pillars:
- Foundations in Management and Research Methods
- Specialization in a Management Discipline
- Research Seminars, Tutorial, Summer Paper, Research Thesis
- Professional Development
Foundation Courses address the fundamental principles of management research, while Specialization Courses offer state-of-the-art insight in a particular discipline. Methods Courses help students to develop the skills needed to produce research publishable in top academic journals. Under the guidance of their advisor, students build theory and design empirical studies culminating in a Summer Paper (end of Year 1) and Research Thesis (end of Year 2).
Professional Development Courses prepare students for an academic career by offering training in academic writing publishing in top academic journals, pedagogy, and career management. Note that students have the option to take French language courses throughout the PhD Program.
End of second year Students who validate all requirements of the Research Master phase obtain a Research Master Degree (Master en Sciences du Management) accredited by the French Ministry of Education under European Standards equivalent to a total of 120 ECTS. Students are admitted to the Dissertation Phase.

During the doctoral studies phase, students work on their research paper-based dissertation and may take additional courses. They are encouraged to present their research projects at national and international academic conferences. Most students spend time as a visiting student at a top university or business school abroad to build an academic network, work with co-authors, and receive feedback on their research.
After successfully defending their thesis, students are awarded the HEC Paris PhD Degree, which is a national recognized diploma (Doctorat ès-sciences de Gestion) affiliated to the IPP Doctoral School.
The HEC Paris PhD Program offers generous support to students to present their research output at academic conferences. Conference funding includes transportation, food and lodging, visa costs, and conference fees. On average, our students participate in two academic conferences annually.
HEC Paris Faculty have a strong network of co-authors who work at top business schools and leading research universities around the world. They call on this network to help PhD students receive invitations for research visits ranging from a few weeks to a full academic year. These visits present a great opportunity for students to get feedback on their dissertation papers, collaborate with renowned faculty, grow their academic network, and prepare the job market. The HEC Paris PhD Program supports students financially by offering an additional cost of living scholarship, return ticket and visa fees.
