In continuation <strong>of</strong> the dedicated service <strong>of</strong> <strong>KSR</strong> Educational Trust, the management extends full support in establishing a unique and <strong>of</strong>fshore<br />

research Centre for Nano Science and <strong>Technology</strong> (CNST) with dedicated team <strong>of</strong> faculty and scientists working to bring innovation in<br />

nano science and technology under the directorship <strong>of</strong> Pr<strong>of</strong>. Dr. V. Rajendran. The centre is aimed to cater to the academic and industrial<br />

needs in collaboration with a wide range <strong>of</strong> national/international universities/research centres/industries. The management is keen in<br />

bringing out the CNST as a world-class research centre to take up any challenging research work in nano valley for the benefits <strong>of</strong> the nation<br />

and the society. The centre has already completed 4 major & twelve minor projects successfully from DRDO, DST and DAE New Delhi at a total<br />

grant <strong>of</strong> 2.11/- crores. Three major and one minor research projects from DST, DRDO and DAE-CSR and IGCAR with a total grant <strong>of</strong> 1.22/- crores<br />

are ongoing. The centre has filed 13 patents in nano metal oxides from natural minerals, nano silica from rice husk, and nano particles from<br />

herbal plants for various industrial applications. These patents are ready for technology transfer. The centre has already signed MoUs with<br />

leading research institutes in India and foreign countries like Germany, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, UK and USA for joint collaborative<br />

research work. The centre is also looking for joint collaborations with multinational companies such as Mintek (South Africa), Elton (UK) on<br />

mutual interest. The department <strong>of</strong>fers postgraduate M.Tech. course in Nano Science and <strong>Technology</strong> in addition to M.S. /Ph.D. programmes.<br />

The department has already conducted one international confrence and three national symposium and two workshops.<br />
