Rationale :
Problem definition is better if domain experts are involved at an early stage in defining the research project.
Improves employability of research scholars
.
CoE’s
Approach :
Collaborative Research
Partners for Research
Key implementation challenges :
Finding partners for collaboration.
Aligning with the partners’ work styles and cultures.
Partners have different processes for doing collaborative research

Slide5CoE Objective – Developing Research Competence
Results:
Rationale :
R
esearch orientation is a necessary ingredient in the researcher that enhances his/her ability to do research
CoE’s
Approach :
Interaction with experts / research scholars of other institutes working in same/related areas
Collaborating with institutes having
supp
lementary
facilities
Broad basing the selection of research candidates -
Young
Research Fellows (YRF) program for undergraduates
Key implementation challenges :
Research scholars orientation may be to complete the requirements for a degree
Ensuring availability of research manpower and quality feeder cadre for research teams.

Slide6CoE Objective – Sustained Research Funding
Results
:
DST Sponsored Project Completed
-
An Ergonomic Study of Ingress and Egress Motion of Users of Chandigarh Transport Undertaking (CTU) Buses.
TIDE, DST Sponsored Project - Collection of Design Relevant Characteristics of Ageing Users and its Use in Design of a Multipurpose Walking Cane. Submitted jointly with NITIE, Mumbai.
Expression of Interest by NITIE Mumbai &
Tynor
Orthotics Pvt. Ltd.
Mohali
to submit project on Development of Ankle Foot
Orthosis
for Elderly jointly with CoEPilot collaborative study on Ergonomic Evaluation of Dental Workplaces being carried out with IIT Guwahati and NITIE, Mumbai. University of Wisconsin may also be involved in this project.
Rationale :R
esearch plans have less reliability in terms of timelines, to continue research funds requirement is critical.
CoE’s
Approach :
Apply for projects in focused areas that can be sustained for funding.
Target CSR funds / Internal funds of organizations
Key implementation challenges :
Funds are provided for a time period, beyond which funding is not available
External organizations willing to fund have different requirements for research projects which
may
or
may not match the
CoEs
domain

PhD in Industry
programme
(expression of interest) at
Tynor
Orthotics Pvt. Ltd., Mohali Rationale :
Candidate who are able to demonstrate competence during dissertation / thesis work are employed by organizations. CoE’s Approach :Encourage PhD and PG in Industry for dissertation / thesis work.
Key
implementation challenges :
Availability of problem definition data base – industry, society
Alignment of expected time lines for externally generated projects
Slide8CoE Objective – Outcome Driven Research
Results :
Incubation Cell set up in institute
Support Cell for Legal / CA / IP services approved
Projects that have potential to become a venture –
Development of guides for mandible reconstruction from fibula free flap.
Development of dental drill guides for improved cooling
at drilling
site.
Rationale :
R
esearch projects that are driven by high venture possibility require a different way of thinking -
potential user requirements are kept in mind and this helps to optimize research outcomes and deliver practical
PoCs
with high functionality focusCoE’s Approach :
Research projects that have a potential to become a venture.
Training for Venture competency
Setting up of Venture Support Cell
Key implementation challenges :
Availability of problem definition data base – industry, society
Alignment of expected time lines for externally generated projects
