The success of our IPR initiatives is a testament to the collaborative efforts of our research community, the diligence of our students, and the unwavering support from the administration. We believe that the protection of intellectual property is crucial not only for the growth of our institution but also for the larger cause of advancing knowledge and contributing to societal progress.
