Areas of Research
3Our Objectives
Create an ecosystem that empower the students and faculty in high-impact research. Develop innovative, frugal solutions for societal challenges in multidisciplinary domains.
Bridge the academia - industry gaps through mutually beneficial collaborative research. We onboard organizations and research advisors to work along with our faculty and students in these projects.
Active & Completed Projects
2This is a collaborative project of PESU IMSR and Computer Science & Engineering, EC Campus funded by PES University.
Currently we have the following opportunities for collaboration.
1. Students - join us as Interns to work on an exciting healthtech project.
We welcome student interns from departments of CSE, CSE/AIML and Nursing to join our project.
2. Faculty - collaborate with us to expand the scope of the project
3. External Researchers - join us to bring impactful research outcomes
4. Entrepreneurs - commercialize some of our research findings

Noncognitive skills define a person's attitudes and behaviors in general and they are distinct from cognitive skills or intellectual capabilities. Research in the recent past posited noncognitive skills such as self regulation, resilience, social skills etc. as foundational to educational success, often acting as better predictors of long-term academic and life outcomes than cognitive ability alone. This project explores the role of noncognitive skills specifically in higher education. Objectives of the study included identifying and measuring relevant noncognitive skills that affect academic performance, enabling right interventions and enhanced academic success.
