Abstract: Universities are primarily the nodal centres for Academic Research in India. However, the need for and awareness of quality research are not understood clearly among the academia leading to a wide disparity in research activity and output across the country, both in quality as well as quantity. It is widely felt that the academicians from Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) of National and International repute, do not justify the role of Researchers and many of them do not confirm to the International Academic standards of research. The understanding and contribution to quality research in their specific area of study seem to be an imminent challenge faced by the academicians in the HEIs in India. The study aims to gauge the levels of awareness of quality research among the academicians in HEIs and to assess various factors leading to low quality research in these institutions. The Study includes a sample survey on 140 respondents using an online questionnaire to assess the levels of understanding among them with regard to quality research in HEIs and also to analyze the various causative factors contributing to poor research in HEIs. The present study reveals that lack of funding for quality research, target based research activities, multiple roles played by the academia and paucity of incentivization for research work to be the major deterrents for poor quality research in India.
