The CoE URC aims to establish advanced research and development in various areas of ocean engineering. The CoE URC will offer unique research opportunities for students and industry partners to uplift their skills in the areas of (1) Design and Development of Bio-memetic Underwater Vehicles, (2) Smart Nanomaterials for Underwater Devices, (3) Optical, Acoustical, and RF-Communication, (4) Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Assisted IOT Signal Processing. The Centre will offer under graduate and post graduate level advanced research projects along with regular PhD research work. Dr. M. Ravichandran appreciated the efforts to establish the Centre with a major focus on the selected research thrust areas which are well aligned with the deep ocean mission of our Nation. He further extended his confidence in the CoE to excel in National and International collaborative research projects. He wished the CoE URC to possess a technologically potential roadmap in the proposed thrust areas to excel among the pioneer international research community.
