Contemporary academic disciplines consider research skills to be an essential skill since knowledge domains change rapidly, making one's knowledge obsolete if one does not adapt to the habit of gathering new knowledge. Research skills in undergraduates help them to be competitive and survive in academia as well as in industry. Hands on experience in research and research methodology have been successfully integrated to the undergraduate and postgraduate curricula to inculcate research skills in students. Success with this integration has been evidenced on many occasions with SLIIT winning numerous accolades like Microsoft Imagine cup, the Asia pacific ICT alliance award, and the national best quality software award many times in the recent past. In addition, both undergraduate and postgraduate students have published and presented research papers in many local and foreign research forums. SLIIT thrives to be the best academic institution to impart research skills in graduates for a remarkable learning experience.
