The Research and Product Innovation Cell (aka R&D Center) aims at imparting inventive and research oriented engineering education to students by enabling them to become capable of solving practical problems of society with innovative methods and processes. As mere theoretical engineering education with standard laboratory work is insufficient to make the students employable by the time they complete their curricular study, the center aims at honing their independent thinking ability, problem solving skills, and entrepreneurial skills so as to empower them to contribute towards the economical development of the country. Students are trained for conducting practical research, and for developing useful products starting from conceptual ideation up to prototype completion.
The center is well equipped with tools and computer hardware and software systems for conducting university level research work and developing prototypes of products.
“To become an R&D Center with a commitment to perform original R&D work on par with global standards.”
To provide a research and development environment that supplements the engineering curriculum so as to focus on the current technological needs and industrial requirements in the country matching with global standards.
Current Activities and Product Developments The current focus of the R&D center is on development of innovative products in association with the students. The following products have been developed or are under development at the center:
