Abstract
This qualitative phenomenological inquiry explored collaborative dynamics in academic research at private universities in Punjab, Pakistan, focusing on faculty-student interactions. Conducted at Ripah International University and the University of Lahore, the study aims to uncover mentorship, shared authorship, and collaborative research projects, with a specific focus on research productivity. Semi-structured interviews with ten faculty and ten postgraduate students from each institution, analysed using the Plano and Clark technique with NVivo software, reveal key themes in collaboration. Teachers highlight collaborative processes, communication challenges, resource constraints, benefits and challenges, cultural and generational factors, adaptability, and holistic development. Similarly, students' responses illuminate collaborative roles, communication challenges, resource limitations, benefits and challenges, and the cultivation of a collaborative culture. Findings emphasise the evolving roles of teachers and students, the pivotal role of mentorship, effective communication, and strategic resource management in the context of research productivity. The study establishes a theoretical framework for understanding the impact of teacher-student collaboration on academic research productivity, learning outcomes, and skill development, contributing valuable insights to collaborative research practices in Pakistani higher education institutions.
