SASTRA University

SASTRA Deemed University is a comprehensive private institution based in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, with additional campuses in Kumbakonam and Chennai, combining teaching, research, and consultancy at scale. Industry collaboration is enabled by interdisciplinary research centres and advanced laboratories, as well as organized sponsored‑research and consultancy services. On campus, DST/DBT‑supported technology business incubators provide prototyping, training, and venture support through a Section 8 entity that accelerates startup partnerships. Research draws competitive funding from India’s central agencies, including DST, DBT, CSIR, ICMR, DRDO and ISRO, alongside contributions from corporate sponsors. Commercialization is reinforced by an institutional IPR policy and patent support, and the university’s DSIR‑recognized SIRO status underscores its research credentials.
