Summary

Introduction

The Gross enrollment ratio of youth in higher education is 17.9% in which only 2.1 percent of them only enroll themselves in research programmes. The interest of youth should be channelized towards the research activities. It could be achieved in the very beginning of formal education. The teachers should motivate the youth to participate in research or project works in school level itself. The responsibility of teachers and institutions is to see that the youth should be strong enough to participate in research activities. This could be achieved by setting up the quality research mind among the youth
