Consultancy

Developing institute-industry interface is a thrust area and could be mutually beneficial in several ways. The strategies adopted for the same are

• Establishment of the CIF, will enhance our capability for undertaking research in diverse areas and will give us opportunity for extending consultancy/ service to clients.
• Focusing on applied research.
• Recruitment of staff with a specialized expertise is also an avenue to build upon a valued resource of specialist in the institution.
• Formal tie up in the form of MOUs.
• Alumni involvement in conduct of activities.
• Sending students for internships, inviting experts from industry, industrial visits are some of the other strategies adopted.
