Objective of the institutions offering technical education in engineering technology is not only to offer teaching only, rater they bear with them a very high degree of expectations from the society and country to conduct research to provide effective solutionsof burning issues and challenges being faced by the society and industry. Recognizing the significance and roleof technical institutions in the process of growth and development of the country, many government and semi-government, autonomous, national and international agencies come forward to grant financial assistance to promote research and innovation activity in engineering colleges. In this respect, faculties and students of Trident Academy of Technology have availed the benefit of research grant from time to time in the form of Extramural Funding for Research form various funding agencies to carry out sponsored research projects on identified thrust areas:
