SEGi UC is committed to embarking on Research and Innovation activities in addition to becoming a UC with excellence in teaching and learning.

In line with our aspiration to be a leader in Research, Development and Innovation, the UC has allocated a substantial amount of seed fund for research annually to encourage young researchers to embark on their research activities that are relevant to the industry.

Researchers are also encouraged to apply for external research grants from the public and private sectors. It is also the UC's goal to establish numerous academic and industry collaborations in research and development that will enhance university-industry linkages through a smart partnership concept.

To further strengthen its commitment in the Research and Development initiative, the UC has established a Research & Innovation Management Centre (RIMC) as the main liaison centre. This centre is also committed to the promotion of research activities within UC through organising relevant workshops and seminars in order to enhance the research capabilities among the academic.
