IPR cell has been functioning in the College (In the main building near the Hostel Office, Room No. 101) from July 2010 onwards. As per the Proceedings No. L4/19813/10/DTE Thiruvananthapuram dated 26/05/2010, The IPR cell is supported by the Patent Information Centre (PIC) – Kerala, Kerala State Council for Science, Technology & Environment (KSCSTE), Govt. of Kerala. Dr Anjan R Nair, Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering is the coordinator of the IPR cell.
Due to the lack of awareness of the significance of IPR, many of the inventions/creations emanating from engineering colleges are not protected. The Inventions are being published in newspapers and media and thus they are disqualified from getting patents. Hence, to guide the student and faculty in the colleges in protecting their intellectual properties IPR cell can contribute in this direction and it can create awareness and facilitate the filing of patent applications and other forms of IPR through PIC-Kerala.
