Denpasar, September 18, 2026 - The Directorate of Research and Community Service (DRPM) at Primakara University conducted a Research Grant Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) session to support improvements in research implementation and the quality of research outcomes produced by university lecturers. The session was reviewed by Ni Made Estiyanti, S.E., M.Si., Ak., Ph.D.
The evaluation covered three research grant schemes: Applied Research – Prototype Output, Regular Fundamental Research (PFR), and Beginner Lecturer Research (PDP).

Through the review process, researchers also received feedback and guidance to help refine their research activities and strengthen implementation through completion.
Monitoring and evaluation play an important role in ensuring that research projects remain on track and work toward their intended outcomes. The process also provides researchers with an opportunity to identify areas for improvement, both in research implementation and in achieving the expected results.
