Sharing
knowledge is a vital component in the growth
and advancement of our society in a sustainable
and responsible way. In order to contribute,
AIU is implementing an "Open Access"
Initiative with academic work, select courses,
scientific research, projects, and other
scholarly work by students, faculty, and
other contributors seeking increased access
to Higher Education by making learning materials
and research Publicly Accessible. Through
Open Access, AIU and other leading institutions
through out the world are tearing down the
barriers to access and use research literature
and academic materials. Our organization
is interested in the dissemination of advances
in scientific research fundamental to the
proper operation of a modern society, in
terms of community awareness, empowerment,
health and wellness, sustainable development,
economic advancement, and optimal functioning
of health, education and other vital services.
AIU’s Mission
and Vision is consistent with
the vision expressed in the Budapest Open
Access Initiative and Berlin Declaration
on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences
and Humanities.
In case you can not view the table at the
bottom of the page, some of the Student
Publications are also available in html.
AIU
"Open Access" Initiative
Therefore, we intend to make progress by:
encouraging our students, faculty, researchers,
grant recipients to publish their work
according to the principles of the open
access paradigm.
make course content, lectures, assignments
and other course materials available to
the public.
encouraging the holders of cultural
heritage to support open access by providing
their resources on the Internet.
advocating that open access publication
be recognized in promotion and tenure
evaluation.
advocating the intrinsic merit of contributions
to an open access infrastructure by software
tool development, content provision, metadata
creation, or the publication of individual
articles.
