CORE RESEARCH GROUP (CRG)(Coordinator Prof. Vijay Kant Verma)
CRG- A Novel Initiatives

The Core Research Group is a unique initiative of AISECT University to foster research culture in the University. Research work demands large number resources in terms of money, time and infrastructure with attached uncertainly of result and longer time scale for success. Private Universities have to mostly depend on own resources and that is the reason that, in private universities, not much research activities are seen. But AISECT University is a lot different. Research is a core area here. To underline the concern the Core Research Group has been set up. With initial funding of One Crore basic research facilities were set up in AISECT University. The CRG has been further given a seed budget of Rs. One Crore annually starting from 2017 with following objectives: -



  • Extend financial and administrative support for travelling and presenting papers abroad.
  • Build up Research Facilities and Research Culture.
  • Identify meaningful Research Projects and provide funds.
  • Encourage Research Writing and provide support for publication.
  • Function as the Nodal point for Research Activity other than doctoral research.
