Funding Opportunities
Funding Agency
The links to the homepages of various funding agencies providing the details of R&D proposals/formats and related details are provided below. Regular faculty of NIT Calicut can approach or submit research proposals to any of the funding agencies in their format. Some of the funding agencies are inviting proposals in the form of e-tender (ex-NHPC, NTPC..). There will be tough competition under such cases. Faculty can submit proposals under collaborative research with industries, reputed universities, (with higher NIRF rank or good QS ranking) or research institutions.
