AB  - Research unit is a pillar to the success of a university’s vision. Although, the impact and
encouragement from management is necessary in helping the university achieve the goal but it should also be
nurtured from the basic level. Research unit refers to the individual as a lecturer who heads research in their
expertise field. Facilities and support, both physically and spiritually is important in facilitating and catalyzing
the success of a strategy developed by a research unit. However, real success lies in the research unit. If this
research unit mature, motivated and able to compete, it will bring a university to achieve glory. This study will
provide the definition of the research unit and its role in achieving the mission and vision of a university. But
as great as the platform built by the management of a university, it would not be progress if the research unit
is in the passive state. Therefore, this study proposes measures and strategies that can be done by a research
group to form a strong group. In order to create a strong and excellent research unit, this study also proposes
actions to be performed by the university which all efforts will be realized accordingly. Thus, the role and
initiatives of the university’s management center (such as graduate, research and innovation) is important to
create a better research unit (researchers and students) in term of quality.
