Welcome to the 17th Conference on Postgraduate Research

“International Postgraduate Research Conference” IPRC 2016


IPRC_2016 4

A Special Note About the Program Book The University of Kelaniya is moving towards becoming the first university to successfully adopt green practices in Sri Lanka. We are beginning to move towards a ‘paperless’ society. In keeping with the concept, we have decided to offer the essential information that participants would require in print form. The rest of the information is offered online. This year, the conference was organized using an online conference management platform that facilitated a smooth organizing process and better data management in registration and reviewing. We hope participants would appreciate our new initiative. The online programme: offers session information, time, date, author information and title of abstract The conference programme book: offers conference information, time, date and venue Abstract and author information book: available online in PDF format offers full author information Online information will be available through the conference web site. All online information will be accessible on your smart phone or iPad through the IPRC web site.

The conference venue

The University of Kelaniya

The University of Kelaniya has its origin in the historic Vidyalankara Pirivena, founded in 1875 as a centre of learning for Buddhist monks. It was one of the two great national centres of traditional higher learning, heralding the first phase of the national movement and national resurgence.

With the establishment of modern Universities in Sri Lanka in the 1940s and 1950s, the Vidyalankara Pirivena became the Vidyalankara University in 1959, later the Vidyalankara Campus of the University of Ceylon in 1972 and, ultimately, the University of Kelaniya in 1978.

Today, the University of Kelaniya is one of the major national Universities. It is located just outside the municipal limits of Colombo, in the ancient and historic city of Kelaniya, on the north bank of the Kelani River. It has two major campuses, seven locations, six faculties and four institutions.

The University of Kelaniya has pioneered a number of new developments in Higher Education. It was one of the first Universities to begin teaching science in Sinhala, and also the first to restructure the traditional Arts Faculty into three separate Faculties of Humanities, Social Sciences and Commerce and Management. It also has several unique Departments not generally found in the Sri Lankan University system and some Kelaniya innovations have been adopted subsequently by other Universities. These include the Departments of Industrial Management and Microbiology in the Faculty of Science; Departments of Linguistics, Fine Arts, Modern Languages and Hindi in the Faculty of Humanities; and Mass Communication and Library and Information Sciences in the Faculty of Social Sciences. In the year 2016 a new faculty has been established, Faculty of Computing and Technology.

In keeping with its historical root, the University is one of the national centers of excellence in Pali and Buddhist Studies and related fields. It has long established and well-developed Departments of Pali and Buddhist Studies (incorporating chairs in Buddhist Civilization and Buddhist Philosophy), Sanskrit, Linguistics, Philosophy, Sinhala, and Hindi, as well as the Postgraduate Institute of Pali & Buddhist Studies.

Kelaniya also maintains close links with the Buddhist and Pali University of Sri Lanka (whose Vice-Chancellors have often been drawn from the University of Kelaniya Faculty). Thus, the University of Kelaniya forms the centre of an academic complex, specializing in modern developments in traditional disciplines. It also retains a close link with its mother institution, the Vidyalankara Pirivena, whose Head is also the Chancellor of the University.


IPRC_2016 8

At the same time, the University of Kelaniya has a modern and multi-cultural structure and perspective, with the Faculties of Science, Medicine, Social Sciences, Humanities, Commerce & Management and Computing and Technology and a strong base in modern languages, including the teaching of Chinese, English, French, German, Hindi, Japanese, Russian, Tamil, and Modern Linguistics. Presently engaged in extensive restructuring as it enters the 21st century, the University of Kelaniya looks forward to a new phase in its 125-year history of development.


IPRC_2016 9

The Faculty of Graduate Studies

The Faculty of Graduate Studies is one of the 7 faculties at the University of Kelaniya.

It offers a variety of programmes, ranging from postgraduate diploma level to doctoral level. Currently, there are over thirty five programmes offered by the various Faculties and institutions, leading to a Master’s degree. Some of the courses are based only on course work, while others are based on research, and some others are a mix of course work and research. Course work at FGS means face-to-face teaching as in a traditional university. These courses are usually conducted during weekends or evenings, to enable people who are already employed to enhance their knowledge and skills. In order to be more accessible, the FGS hopes to launch distance learning modules in the near future.

Postgraduate study at MPhil (Master of Philosophy) and PhD (Doctor of Philosophy)

levels are possible in each Faculty of the University of Kelaniya. These programmes tend to build on the skills acquired at undergraduate and Master’s levels. They involve an applicant being assigned to a supervisor for guidance in conducting research. The applicant and supervisor/s work together to achieve the objectives of the research programme.
