NUTECH Undergraduate Technology labs (NUTL) is a unique concept derived from world’s leading technology universities like MIT. Under this arrangement, all the labs in a university join hands to make a collective resource to further research and development along with fulfilling academic requirements.
The objective of NUTECH Technology Labs (NUTL) is to serve as a dynamic platform for fostering industry-focused academic, research, and intellectual collaboration. Designed to promote “Learning-by-Doing” and “Project-Based Experimentation,” these labs provide state-of-the-art facilities for engineering and technology education, support applied research, and facilitate collaboration between academia, industry, and scientific organizations. By acting as conceptual hubs for innovation, NUTL aims to enhance practical knowledge, develop interdisciplinary research opportunities, offer lab-based certifications, and promote the development of patents and industrial solutions, while maintaining sustainable partnerships with national and international institutions.
