Dr. K. C. Patel Research and Development Centre

Dr. K. C. Patel Research and Development Centre (KRADLE) undertakes multidisciplinary research as well as scientific and industrial development. Research and Development (R & D) is the backbone of growth and advancement in education. After venturing into undergraduate and postgraduate education in Engineering, Pharmacy, Management, Computer Applications, and Applied Sciences, it was perceived that time is ripe for an R & D centre as a vehicle for progress and quality education. KRADLE was established in January 2007 to undertake R & D work in the emerging areas of science and technology.
