DST-FIST Sponsored Center


The DST-FIST initiative at KLEF underscores the institution’s dedication to advancing research infrastructure in science and technology. Funded by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), the program enhances research facilities across departments like Atmospheric Sciences, Biotechnology, and Computer Science Engineering. Each department benefits from modernized labs equipped with cutting-edge instruments tailored to their specific research needs. For instance, the IoT Research Lab supports advancements in Internet of Things technologies, while the Metabolic Engineering Lab focuses on groundbreaking research in biotechnology. The program also funds the development of research facilities in communication systems and augments teaching and research infrastructure in Physics and Chemistry. These facilities empower researchers to undertake high-quality projects, conduct interdisciplinary studies, and explore innovative solutions to complex challenges. The initiative not only supports equipment procurement but also fosters collaboration, enabling institutions to attract skilled researchers and students. By bridging the gap between academia and industry, DST-FIST has positioned KLEF as a leading hub for scientific research and technological innovation in India. This initiative ensures that KLEF remains at the forefront of science and technology, contributing significantly to the nation’s scientific and academic landscape.
