Vision

“To be the thought leader in Industrial Engineering education and research, and partner in the manufacturing renaissance of the nation.”

Research

The Institute stands out for its focus in the field of logistics and Cargo. Logistics is the backbone of the economy and development of a country. Improving the logistics sector's efficiency is crucial for the country's economy because it boosts economic growth, increases exports across global supply chains, and creates employment. Though India's passenger and freight mobility sectors are improving, and the logistics sector is increasing at a 10.5 percent CAGR and hit USD 215 billion in 2020, the system has a number of interwoven problems that must be tackled in order to improve productivity even further. India's logistics costs account for about 14% of GDP in terms of value, which is significantly higher than the US (9%), Europe (10%), and Japan (11%).
