Our Research

TRVS Technical Campus-Coimbatore Research and Development Centre (R&D Centre) was established in the year 2016. It is located in our college campus with an aim to take care of research culture by promoting and encouraging the faculty and the students to do research activities in newly emerging and challenging areas of Engineering, Technology, Science and Humanities. This enhances the general research capability of budding technocrats by way of organizing / participating in conferences, seminars, workshops, project competition, etc. R&D Centre will help in developing the new creative, cost effective and innovative ideas among students and staff members and also convert them ideas into product with the aid of various government funding agencies.

The R&D Centre obtains current circulars, regularizes and carries out follow-up action for applying funded projects from various funding agencies and motivates the members of faculty and UG/PG students to apply for different proposals for requesting grant to conduct research and development activities. It supports faculty members and students to prepare and publish technical papers in National and International Conferences / Journals. The methodology for preparing, scrutinize, updating and formatting is assisted by R&D Centre. The institution has 13 Ph.D., holders with a vibrant research potential in various research domains and 15 faculty members are currently pursuing Ph.D. in various disciplines. Periodically this R & D centre conducting students level Project Expos to showcase their innovative ideas. Best projects is send to various funding agencies like Tamil Nadu State Council for Science & Technology (TANSCST), AICTE, DRDO, DSIR, ISRO, DST, etc. Our faculty and students successfully got many funds from TANSCST, AICTE and DST, etc. Currently we are focusing on the social related problems like Energy Production System and saving methodologies, low cost solar street lights, low cost water purification system, Green composite materials, Seamless communication and signal distribution systems and Big data analysis tools, etc., The Centre comprises Advisory board member and coordinators as head and senior faculty member from each department is nominated as R&D coordinator to deal with activities of their respective department and follow-up action.
