Duration: The duration of support will be for a period not exceeding 3 years. Criterion for Selection: Apart from academic and research merits of the organizations, details of how the revival of the research facility will benefit the scientific community/MSMEs/ Start-ups will be considered for evaluating the proposals.
Proven record of sample(s) analysed, publications, patents, different beneficiaries/stakeholders associated with the facility and other parameters like Scientific Social Responsibility/ industrial R&D components will be considered for screening of the proposals. The selection process will be through a peer review mechanism and visit to the organizations, if necessary.
Expert Committee will evaluate the proposals and assist DST in making the final selection. During this year, more than 75 fresh proposals have been received in SUPREME which are in the process of evaluation.
