Vel Tech Rangarajan Dr. Sagunthala R and D Institute of Science and Technology - [Vel Tech]

Vel Tech focuses on various disciplines of Engineering and Management, Media & Communication Technology, LAW and Applied Sciences. Since the inception in 1997, Vel Tech has laid emphasis on intense Industry-Integration, Impactful Research, International Collaborations and Technology Business Incubations.

Our research facility is accorded with the status of Scientific & Industrial Research Organization (SIRO) by DSIR, Govt. of India. Till date, we have worked with agencies like DRDO, DAE, NID, DST and many manufacturing and engineering Industries to provide concerted solutions in different domains connected with UAVs, 3D printing, electronics, new materials, and e-bikes. Till date, we have worked with agencies like DRDO, DAE, NID, DST and many manufacturing and engineering Industries to provide concerted solutions in different domains connected with UAVs, 3D printing, electronics, new materials, and e-bikes. Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) have been signed with various International Universities across the Globe. This would further strengthen Research and Academic linkages, exchange of students and faculty with an aim to achieve state-of-the-art infrastructure facilities in various fields of Engineering and Science. Directorate of International Relations has been set, to promote relations with renowned Institutions abroad. It provides an opportunity for students to complete a part of their degree programmes and a platform for the faculty members to collaborate, work jointly and engage in various active research with peers at foreign Universities.
