” After all the Ultimate goal of all research is not objectivity but Truth”

Dr. Siddesh K B Dean, R&D Center SJMIT, Chitradurga.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT CENTRE

The Research & Development Center at SJMIT is dedicated to fostering innovation and research among faculty and students. Supported by the “VTU Research Grant” and “K-FIST” scheme by the Vision Group on Science and Technology, Govt. of Karnataka, the center promotes Open Innovation through collaborative research and resource sharing.

Our focus is on identifying new research areas, developing projects that lead to high-impact publications in National and International Journals, and enhancing the technical competence of our nation. We support faculty and students in writing project proposals, publishing scientific papers, and filing patents.

The center also encourages cross-departmental research to explore advanced technologies and drives the development of innovative processes and products, establishing SJMIT as a hub of knowledge and research excellence.

Vision

Empowering the students with the hands on experience in key technologies of current state of the art and research capabilities.

Mission

To educate students in basic and advanced research areas to solve problems of society and to deliver solutions for various technologies related issues. 

Objectives

• Supporting and developing distinctive competencies of faculty members and student to build a new generation of researchers.
• Transferring and appropriating modern technology to fit with the local environment, for the purpose of national development.
• Linking research policies with goals of the universities and needs of society through providing advice and addressing problems through innovation and research.
