DST Project :
 

The Center has the scheme of approving research projects for funding from DST. Scientists of different parts of India working or interested in working in the fields of soft computing may send their research proposals (as per DST format) to the Principal Investigator, Center  for Soft Computing Research, Indian Statistical Institute, 203 B. T. Road, Kolkata 700 108 with a forwarding letter from the Head of the Institute. Project proposal will be evaluated at regular intervals of time. The Center will monitor the progress of such projects and may also provide expert supports, if required.

The magnitude of funding could be around Rs. 10 lakhs.
