RPS Promotes Research in identified thrust areas of in Technical Education. RPS is aimed
to create research ambience in the institutes by promoting research in engineering
sciences and innovations in established and newer technologies; and to generate
Masters and Doctoral degree candidates to augment the quality of faculty and research
personnel in the country.
Research and development activities are considered as an essential component of higher
education because of their role in creating new knowledge and insight and imparting
excitement and dynamism to the educational process, as well as make them need based
in view of the national requirements. The objective of this scheme is to create and
update the general research capabilities of the faculty members of the various Technical
Institutes. The proposal should include a specific project theme with a clear statement of
the objectives, details of equipments and other research facilities proposed to be
acquired and the expected deliverables from the project.
Eligibility
AICTE approved Technical Institutions / University Departments with relevant PG
programme.
Full time regular faculty with research experience and publications.
The preliminary research facilities should be available in the institute.
One proposal from one PI (Principal Investigator) will be sanctioned at any point of time
within the duration of project.
Duration of the Project
Duration of project will be three year from the date of receipt of funds in the institutes
account.
Limit of Funding
Total funding of Rs.25Lakh.
Recurring 15% and Non-Recurring 85% of the total grant. Refer 6.1.7((g)).
Disbursement of the Funds
100% of the total funds of non-recurring and one third of recurring for the first year.
Recurring of one third for second year.
Recurring of one third for third year.
Processing Methodology:
The proposal shall be assessed by an expert committee constituted as follows:
Three member expert committee not below the rank of Associate Professor.
At least two members among the experts shall be from the concerned stream.
Terms and conditions
The Principal Investigator already having ongoing RPS projects from AICTE shall not be
considered unless the ongoing projects are completed.
The departments not having relevant Post Graduate Programme intended for execution
of the proposed project as well as Diploma level Courses are not eligible for financial
assistance under RPS Scheme.
The Principal Investigator has the primary responsibility for the implementation of the
project.

(j)

If the Principal Investigator of RPS programme joins another institution, AICTE will have
no objection to transfer the project if No Objection Certificates are obtained from both
the parent Institute and the Institute where the Principal Investigator intends to join.
In case the Principal Investigator leaves the Institution without transfer of the project or
goes on long leave, the Co-Investigator would be allowed to continue with the project,
subject to the consent of the Principal Investigator in case of long leave and approval of
AICTE. All such requests should be sent to AICTE in advance. Therefore, association of a
Co-Investigator in the project is desirable.
In case the Principal Investigator leaves the Institute and there is no other associated CoInvestigator to carry out the project, the Head of the Department should take the
responsibility for identifying a competent person in the Institution in the relevant subject
area and submit his/her bio-data to the Council for further consideration.
The grant will be utilized strictly for the purpose as specified in the sanction letter. Reappropriation of funds from one head to another is strictly not permitted; Recurring and
Non-Recurring heads are 15% and 85% respectively of the total grant, unless otherwise
recommended by AICTE experts. The list of equipment decided by the experts is final and
there can be no changes later on.
Once the project is sanctioned, the Council shall not consider any request for additional
grant.
Separate institutional overheads for execution of the project shall not be provided by
AICTE.
Out of the project grant, no funds can be used for going abroad to attend
Conferences/Seminars. However, for presenting a paper in a Seminar/Conference within
the Country, the travel expenses may be met from the recurring component of the grant

OBJECTIVES
(a)

(b)

The Indian National Digital Library in Engineering Sciences and Technology (INDEST)
Consortium was set up in 2003 by the Ministry of Human Resource Development
(MHRD) on the recommendation of an Expert Group appointed by the Ministry. The
Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi was designated as the Consortium
Headquarters to co-ordinate its activities. The Consortium enrolls engineering and
technological institutions as its members and subscribe to electronic resources for them
at discounted rates of subscription and favorable terms and conditions. The benefit of
consortia-based subscription to electronic resources is not confined to its core members
but is also extended to all educational institutions under its open-ended proposition. 60
Govt./Govt.-aided engineering colleges are provided to access to selected electronic
resources with financial support from the AICTE. The number of AICTE supported
institutes has been increased to 103 by inducting new membership of 43 eligible
institutes during the year 2014. 1235 engineering colleges and institutions who joined
the Consortium has now grown to 1500.
The Consortium was re-named as INDEST-AICTE Consortium in December 2005 with the
AICTE playing a pivotal role in enrolling its approved engineering colleges and
institutions as members of the Consortium for selected e-resources at much lower rates
of subscription. The objectives of INDEST-AICTE Consortium are as follows:
1. To subscribe electronic resources for the members of the Consortium at
highly discounted rates of subscription and at the best terms and conditions.
2. To extend the benefit of consortia-based subscription beyond the core
members to other engineering and technological institutions.
3. To impart training to the users and librarians in the members institutions on
subscribed electronic resources with an aim to optimize the usage of
subscribed electronic resources.
4. To find more avenues of cooperation and interaction amongst member
libraries.
5. To increase scientific productivity of member institutions in terms of quality
and quantity of publications.
6. To help new engineering institutes and colleges to make the right choice of
e-resources.
7. To find more avenues of co-operation and interaction with other consortia.

Considering the accommodation problems being faced by SC/ST students in taking


admissions in good engineering colleges, AICTE has launched a scheme for providing
financial assistance for construction of hostels for men and women depending upon the
need of the Institution.
The scheme aims to support Government / Government-aided engineering colleges for
construction of girls / boys hostels for providing residential accommodation for
students / researchers belonging to SC/ST category.
These hostels will also have add-on facility of Community Skill Development Centre for
empowering SC / ST students with skill knowledge. AICTE has taken new initiative for
skills development through NVEQF & Community Colleges. These centers will serve as
facility for imparting Skill knowledge fostering underprivileged classes. It is expected
that providing such a facility to the SC/ST students undergoing professional education
will enhance the enrolment of the SC/ST students as well as improving the quality of
education.
This AICTE scheme is unique in the sense that the construction of the hostel for SC/ST
students could be also done in the existing hostels in the institute by extension of the
construction work.
Eligibility

entitled for the grant.
The Institute must be in existence for last five years.
The Institute must have more than 150 SC/ST students on roll during last 3 years.
Duration of Project
The proposed/approved hostel for SC/ST will be constructed within 2 years from the
date of receipt of the first installment.
Limit of funding
Rs. 2 Crores.
Disbursement of the Funds
Disbursement of 50% of the amount as advance on sanction being 1st Installment. .
Disbursement of 40% of the amount on utilization of the 1st installment being 2nd
Installment only after spot inspection carried out by an Evaluation Committee
comprising of two engineers (one each from Civil & Architect) from AICTE approved
panel to be organized by concerned RO, AICTE. The EVC report should contain all the
