Thrust Areas of Research

RGUKT encourages carrying research that helps in protecting the environment, betters quality of life and particularly that helps in meeting the grand technological and scientific challenges facing the mankind today. Being conscious about the social responsibility, it is also appropriate that RGUKT helps in addressing problems of the vicinity. RGUKT identifies and announces the following areas of research as its thrust areas for in-house research:

• Nano-Technology (Drug design, Membranes, Industrial Coatings and other Industrial Applications)
• Green technologies (Computing, Communications, Infrastructure and other Technologies)
• Water (Conservation, Purification, Utilization, Systems,...)
• Energy (Conventional and Alternative Energy Resources - Solar PV, Wind, Fuel Cells, Nuclear, Hybrid, other Energy Sources, Energy storage,...)
• Data mining, Information systems, Information Security and High Performance Computing
• Wireless Communications, Sensor Networks and VLSI (Cellular, Next Generation Internet, VLSI Design, Sensor and Ad-hoc Networks,...)
• Computational - x (Eg: Computational Physics, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Computational Electromagnetics,...)
• Implementation, Policy, Economical and Social Issues of Major Projects of public interest (Cases of Jalayagnam, E-Seva, ICT based education, River Networking,...)
