Collaborations & MoUs

Delhi Technological University (DTU) entered into a collaborative partnership with the Scientific Analysis Group (SAG), a premier laboratory under the Defence Research & Development Organization (DRDO), to advance joint research and academic initiatives in emerging technologies. SAG, recognized for its pioneering contributions in cryptography and information security, has long provided critical technological inputs for national security and defence applications. With its specialized research infrastructure and multidisciplinary expertise, SAG continues to play a pivotal role in developing cutting-edge solutions for secure communication and information systems.

The collaboration focused on promoting multidisciplinary research and enhancing academic engagement in areas of strategic importance. Faculty members and students from DTU will participate in joint research projects, knowledge exchange programs, and internships, gaining valuable exposure to applied defence research and advanced technology development. The partnership encompassed a wide range of research domains, including cyber and network security, IoT and smart device security, artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, blockchain, and secure communication systems. Through this initiative, DTU strengthened its institutional capabilities in security and defence technologies, while providing its students and researchers with experiential learning opportunities aligned with national R&D priorities.

Delhi Technological University (DTU), through its Centre for Community Development and Research (CCDR), collaborated with FinX to introduce industry-oriented courses aimed at enhancing student engagement and employability. As the Knowledge Partner, FinX is responsible for providing subject expertise, course content, and program design, while DTU oversees academic integration and institutional coordination.

The financial structure and revenue-sharing arrangement were mutually agreed upon, with 70% allocated to FinX and 30% to DTU, ensuring affordability and value for students. DTU will periodically review the implementation and execution of the courses to uphold academic quality and achieve the intended objectives. This collaboration underscores DTU’s commitment to blending industry-relevant learning with academic excellence and practical skill development.

Delhi Technological University (DTU), in collaboration with TRAX S. Society, successfully conducted initiatives focused on Road Safety Practices and the development of Student Ambassadors under a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed on 22 November 2024. TRAX S. Society, a nationally recognized road safety NGO, partnered with DTU to promote safe road behavior, with a special emphasis on two-wheeler riders and pillion riders, aligning with Sustainable Development Goals SDG 3.6 (halving global deaths and injuries from road traffic crashes) and SDG 11.2 (ensuring access to safe, affordable, and sustainable transport).

A Road Safety Team was constituted at DTU, comprising Prof. Shilpa Pal as one faculty mentor and four student members forming the Core Team of Road Safety Brand Ambassadors. The team executed five mandatory activities, including the “Role of Bystander”, coordinated all logistics, maintained reporting standards, and submitted monthly progress reports to ensure maximum outreach. This collaboration effectively raised awareness about road safety among students and the wider community, empowering youth to act as informed ambassadors for safer transportation practices.

Delhi Technological University (DTU), in collaboration with the Koshika Foundation and Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital, carried out a joint R&D initiative to integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) into healthcare delivery, with a focus on eye care. The Koshika Foundation, a public charitable trust, has been providing free major eye surgeries, diagnostics, and pediatric treatments to economically weaker sections for over 11 years.

Under this MOU several AI-driven projects were initiated, including AI integration into Electronic Medical Records for summaries and follow-ups, a High Myopia Prediction App, a Data Extraction App, a Doctor Roster and Patient Reminder App, and AI-assisted Glaucoma research. Visits to Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital supported hands-on implementation. This collaboration successfully combined technological innovation with healthcare services, enhancing operational efficiency, patient care, and DTU’s engagement in socially impactful research.
