2. KSCST – FPP – STI (2022-23)

In November 2021, KSCST launched a brand-new program called the “Faculty Project Program (FPP)” to aid in the development of new products and services. As part of this initiative, KSCST invited faculty members to submit project proposals, as well as project guides of projects that were recognized as the year’s best projects, committee-selected projects for further development, and prototypes for the Student Project Programme (SPP) series.

The goal of the FPP initiative is to fortify technological advancements that have the potential to spread widely through commercial and/or non-commercial channels, providing them and other participants in the value chain with tangible or intangible rewards.

The Karnataka state’s location-specific challenges were the focus of a call for project proposals from KSCST, which provides S&T intervention through technology development and demonstration. Before putting the project proposal into action, investigators must carefully map out the state’s and district’s science and technology needs. Project proposals must address the needs of Karnataka.
