Spread across an academic ecosystem that includes Engineering & Technology, Medicine and Health Sciences, Science & Humanities, Management, Agricultural Sciences, Law, and Social Sciences, SRMIST continues to nurture an ecosystem where breakthrough thinking thrives.
A major catalyst in this journey has been the Centre for Intellectual Asset Protection (CIAP), established in 2021. The centre has streamlined the end-to-end patenting process, empowering faculty, students, and researchers to protect and progress their innovations with confidence. The steady rise in patent filings since its inception underscores SRMIST’s commitment to strengthening India’s innovation capacity and boosting global competitiveness.
SRMIST’s portfolio now includes several path-breaking patents, such as:
A photocatalytic process for green hydrogen generation, pushing forward the transition to clean energy
An automatic transmission switching system for hybrid vehicles, redefining next-generation mobility
An automated industrial container-cleaning system, bringing sustainability to manufacturing and sanitation
Assistive technologies designed to support visually impaired users, advancing inclusive innovation
A polyherbal formulation for PCOS, contributing to accessible healthcare solutions
Each invention showcases SRMIST’s mission to solve global challenges through science, technology, and human-centred innovation.
This achievement has been enabled by the university’s world-class research ecosystem from state-of-the-art translational laboratories and Centres of Excellence to strong collaborations with industry leaders and global institutions. These platforms ensure that ideas born on campus evolve into deployable technologies that can impact society at scale.
With 500+ patents granted and many more in the pipeline, SRMIST stands tall as a premier research-intensive global university, shaping the future of science, technology, and society.
