An interdisciplinary group of 75 faculty and other staff members and a large cross-section of students are involved in water research and extension activities at KITS. More than 100 papers on the theme of water have been published in Scopus/WoS indexed journals. Around 12 patents have been filed; one of them is filed in collaboration with Ben-Gurion University and another with Cape Breton University. There are around 100 alumni collaborating with their alma mater in activities pertaining to water. The teams meet frequently and formulate interdisciplinary water and related activities.
The emerging tools developed, methodology and models evolved by the team would be of use to water resources management in different hydro-ecological and agro-climatic zones of the country.
