Computer & Internet Security
for
The vision of the Centre is to become the nodal R&D centre
in the Country for all aspects of computer security and to
educate various governmental and non-governmental
organizations on the security issues and help them in this
regard.
SIDBI Innovation & Incubation Centre
The Centre has been set up in collaboration with Small
Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) to foster
innovation, research and entrepreneurial activities in
technology based areas. SIIC provides a platform to convert
innovative ideas into commercially viable products.
National
Information
Centre
Earthquake Engineering (NICEE)
of
NICEE hosted at the Institute is intended to collect and
maintain information resources on Earthquake Engineering
and make these available to the interested professionals,
researchers, academicians and others with a view to
mitigate earthquake disasters in India.

Resource
The Institute shall draw specific short and long term training
programmes for capacity building for officers of The
Archaeological Survey of India in the application of modern
technology in archaeology.
Media Lab Asia
Media Lab Asia restructured having interest in the areas of
technological innovation and original research work which
should have definite and meaningful outcome to help to
alleviate the living standard of poor masses worldwide.
Indo–US Center for Research Excellence
in Fabrionics
The Center is a consortium of Indian researchers from IITK,
IITKgp, BESU and CMRI collaborating with UIUC, UCI and
Northwestern in the science, technology and selected
applications of advanced fabrication.
Indo-US joint Center on Biomaterials for
health care: Biomaterials as well as their applications
in artificial organs are widely recognized as an emerging
area. Recent developments in the field testify to a significant
progress in our attempts to develop new biomaterials. In this
regard, the Institute has received a grant for establishment
of the Center.
ISRO-IIT Kanpur Space Technology Cell
The Cell is established to generate knowledge through
advanced academic R&D efforts to ensure a self reliant and
self generating space programme for our nation in future
years. It aims to harness the advanced areas of space
science & technology.
Advanced Centre for Materials Science
ACMS was created in 1978 with a view to make available
major materials preparation and characterization facilities
under one-roof. These state-of-the-art research facilities are
regularly upgraded, and maintained by suitably trained
competent staff.
Uttar Pradesh
Corporation Ltd:
Power
Transmission
The objective is to accelerate the
development of the transmission system in the State of UP
through appropriate application of S&T. Such efforts would
enable the State to utilize the scientific, technological and
managerial resources of the Institute for introducing modern
technology in accelerating economic growth and upgrading
its technological skills.
Center for Laser Technology
The CELT is geared towards research in various specialized
applications of laser. It acts as a nodal point for all laser
related research at the Institute. The research activities
cover a wide spectrum of topics involving high calibre &
productive output in terms of large scale projects.
National Wind Tunnel Facility
NWTF established to meet the national needs in areas of
aeronautical and non-aeronautical R&D activities, houses
the most versatile and efficient wind tunnel in India. It has
various
simulation
and
measurement
systems,
interchangeable test sections.
Computer Aided Design Laboratory
Lab of this Institute was established for concept design and
product realization. This lab is to primarily facilitate students
to evolve concepts and convert it into a complete product.
The process of design, simulation and prototyping takes
place in a digitally integrated environment.
Centre for Mechatronics
The Centre gives support for students. It gives training and
disseminates information through continuing education
programmes, through the development of reference
laboratories. It initiated a number of activities in the frontier
area of Mechatronics and has become truly interdisciplinary.
Advanced Centre for Electronic Systems
Sponsored projects in several research areas with large
interdisciplinary content are handled through the ACES. All
Projects Staff - Research Engineers, Associates and
Scientific Officers come under the cooperative umbrella of
ACES.
Computer Centre:
Computer Centre provides Email,
Web, DNS, FTP, Internet access, HPC and other services
24 hours and 365 days a year to the faculty, staff and
students for their research and teaching. It provides various
advance and special purpose software for all the campus
users.
The Autodesk IITK Digital Innovation
Laboratory (DIL)
DIL has 20 state of art graphics work stations with multiple
licenses is open to faculty, students and staff of IITK to
conduct research. These include software for design and
drafting as well as specialised products for electrical, civil,
aerospace applications and animation tools.
