(Affilliated to VTU, Belgaum, Approved by AICTE, New Delhi, Recognized by Govt. of Karnataka)

Research & Development

Research and Development at AIET are rooted by visionary management policies like sending faculties to pursue their research studies under Quality Improvement Programs(QIP) to IITs/NITs and deputing faculties for various Research related Conferences and Workshops, Conducting various research related conferences/workshops. Interaction and collaboration with various Indian and Foreign universities such as Europe, Japan and USA are the part of AIET research culture. Providing facility of various research related projects to the students and faculties through MoU organizations like ISRO, IIIT, IISc, HAL, SCL etc.  Apart from this, the institute has established the unique labs to research aspirants to carry out research in different domains.

Highlights of R&D
  1. We have set up a common research center known as Alva’s Center for Advanced Research to support the
    theme of Project-based learning through UG/PG/PhD Research Projects leading to enhancement of
    knowledge and institutional status with the following Mission.

    • Identification of research projects in the field of Health, Energy, Environment, Water, Communication
      etc.
    • Common research facility;
    • Implementation of projects by involving Faculty and students from UG/PG/Ph.D.
    • Involvement of Resource persons from premier institutes;
    • Enhancement of Faculty/student knowledge through UG/PG/PhD Research Projects;
    • Enhancement of student placement through UG/PG/PhD Research Projects;
    • Publications and Patents of research results;
    • Reduction of industry-academia gap through Industry-Relevant Research Projects with involvement of
      industry partners;
    • Enhancement of institutional outreach through Conferences and Seminars;
    • Overall contribution to societal needs.
  2. The faculty and students of AIET have received funds from various funding agencies, mainly Vision Group
    of Science and Technology, Karnataka Council for Technological Upgradation, Karnataka State Council for
    Science and Technology, Indian Space Research Organization and some industries like Laser Science
    Services Pvt. Ltd and others.
  3. AIET has SIX university recognized Research Centers and has vast pool of UG/PG/Ph.D students in many
    disciplines guided by teams of talented faculty members;
  4. AIET has active collaborations with reputed national institutes like TIFR, Mumbai, IIT Bombay, Mumbai
    and IIT Madras, Chennai. These active collaborations have been very fruitful during the last three years in the
    domains of Fuel cells specifically hydrogen fuel cells and vibration sensors leading to applications for
    patents and many publications in high impact Scopus indexed journals. AIET has applied for 6 patents in the
    domain of fuel cells including hydrogen fuel cells, low frequency vibration sensors, shock wave detection and
    cancer detection. AIET won first prize in January 2018 in the All- India Nano- Hackathon contest held at IIT
    Bombay.
  5. As an outreach activity, AIET has conducted many conferences, seminars and workshops during last 5 year and organized many conferences including an international conference iCOLD 2019 during November 27-29,
    2019, in association with IIT Madras.
  6. AIET has 25 MoUs, mainly with Kumomoto University, Japan, Defence Institute of Advanced Technology
    Pune, Semi-Conductor Laboratory (SCL), Chandigarh, IIIT, Allahabad, ISRO Head Quarters and other associated laboratories, Bangalore, National Atmospheric Research Laboratory (NARL), Gadanki, Chittoor, AP., HAL, Bangalore, Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), Bangalore, Mangalore University and others. Students of AIET have done many internship projects at various types of industries across India: Internship Projects, 123 in 2016-17, 127 during 2017-18 and 144 during 2018-19. Recently One MBA student has secured SECOND rank in the state at Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belagavi.
