Welcome to the official website of Community Research and Innovation Competition (CoRIC).

Community Research and Innovation Competition.

CoRIC is a platform for talented young researchers to pitch their ideas on transforming the community toward a better and sustainable future. The ideas were generated through a contemporary research and innovation. Here in CoRIC we acknowledge the “Power of Ideas” and its commercial value in providing a solution to current global problems.

Universiti Sains Malaysia is currently under APEX transformation programme by the Malaysia Ministry of Education. One of the thrust is “Sustainability”. In collateral to the thrusts of APEX transformation, CoRIC is very particular in enhancing any idea toward sustainability.

CoRIC was introduced as a sub-competition under NRIC since 2011 and was successfully held continuously for each year afterward. Since CoRIC was introduced, we’ve been receiving numbers of participation from universities around Malaysia.
