Research Centre

The Research Center at Chetana’s RK Institute of Management and Research (CRKIMR) has been established to create and nurture contemporary and innovative research in the field of management. It is responsible for developing an eco-system that encourages high-quality research that advances both academic, and business understanding.

The faculty members are actively involved in research that is expected to extend the body of knowledge while also solving complicated problems for businesses. Research projects are often undertaken by a group of faculty members and business professionals, within and outside the CRKIMR eco-system, who collaborate on aided as well as unaided research projects.

At CRKIMR, we firmly believe that high-quality research leads to teaching excellence in the classroom, as it helps in bringing multiple and varied perspectives to every area, courtesy the rigor that good research requires.

The research centre aims to build an excellent research culture at CRKIMR, and a host of initiatives is a testament to this focus. The centre organizes seminars, and webinars for the research aspirations, and also encourages and facilitates engagement with institutes and organizations for receiving grants, and other support for this lot.

International Research Conference

In line with its focus on research and building a culture that naturally encourages research, CRKIMR conducts an international research conference every year, which brings out the best research work undertaken by researchers, academicians, and business professionals. Each year a new theme is attached to the conference, which set the tone for that year’s research, and helps build a repository of comprehensive research material for that area.

The conference is attended by some of the most accomplished business executives, as well as academicians from different corners and geographies. The research conference also provides platforms for stimulating discussions, which often set the tone for pushing the boundaries for research in those areas even further.
