Nestled at the core of our academic ethos, the Centre for Research and
Development (R&D) stands as a beacon of innovation, discovery, and intellectual
inquiry. Rooted in a steadfast commitment to excellence, our center
serves as a vibrant hub where the pursuit of knowledge knows no bounds.
The Centre offers a comprehensive suite of research education courses
meticulously crafted to nurture students' research acumen and intellectual
curiosity. Our programs immerse students in the dynamic realm of research methodology, experimentation, and collaborative inquiry, fostering a spirit of exploration and innovation. Under the mentorship of seasoned experts, students embark on a transformative journey, delving deep into their areas of interest and contributing to the advancement of knowledge in diverse disciplines. Through hands-on experimentation, data analysis, and scholarly discourse, students hone critical research skills essential for scholarly inquiry and professional growth. Our curriculum is designed to instil a strong foundation in research excellence through a series of mandatory activities. Through these mandatory activities, students develop the critical thinking, analytical prowess, and scholarly rigor necessary toexcel as researchers, scholars, and leaders in their chosen fields.
Research Learning is mandatory at Aurora from the Undergraduate level itself, starting from the first year onwards. Imbibing research skills from entry level enrich student competencies related to practising inquiry. Research-based learning is the integration of theoretical knowledge with the use of appropriate data collection and analysis procedures to examine, verify or study a phenomenon or occurrence. Students shall carry out research in their courses independently and with an open outcome under the faculty's guidance. This helps build a strong intellectual and practical connection between research frontiers and the students. Students learn to deal with uncertainty, independence, teamwork and organisational skills.
Multidisciplinary research aims at avoiding the defects of incompleteness. No discipline can be sufficient or complete in itself. At the same time, it cannot assert its capability to solve all the problems. Therefore, each and every discipline is bound to take the help of other disciplines in order to reach a suitable conclusion. Aurora strives relentlessly to address the issues of society at large through multidisciplinary research. It is a pursuit of truth with the help of numerous specialised branches of learning which aims at achieving a common aim with the aid of knowledge of other disciplines. This cooperative and coordinated research uses experts from different disciplines.
We are affiliated with various apex bodies to promote interdisciplinary and co-disciplinary research by coordinating with various funding agencies. In order to support the multifarious and ambitious research activities that are carried out at our campuses, various facets of the research activities are supported by Research grants.
