The Participation of Lecturers of the Faculty of Engineering in Research Results Seminars Lecturers of Internal Grants at PGRI Palembang University for the 2022 Fiscal Year

Research is essentially a scientific activity that can be used as one of the developments for lecturers and can be accounted for, because research conducted by lecturers is based on problems that occur in the object of research and community service itself. As part of the implementation and reporting of research, each researcher is required to make results or result documents and carry out results seminars in the final year of implementation. This activity is a form of responsibility of researchers for the funds that have been obtained and further as a form of disseminating research results within the researchers’ environment. Furthermore, this seminar will be followed by information delivery activities and application of research results to be conveyed to the wider community.

Given the importance of this, LPPKM Universitas PGRI Palembang held a Lecturer Research Results Seminar on Internal Grants for the 2022 Fiscal Year.
