Since its inception, the institute has a well-established system to foster research culture among students and faculty. While research is the central part of a researcher’s life, producing high-impact work by engaging in multidisciplinary and collaborative research is an added demand to the already substantial work. Academic collaborations with researchers from varying backgrounds can act as a conduit to innovative ideas and solutions and hence, BLDE (DU) has over 35 collaborations with institutes of international/national repute. These collaborations/linkages are for the exchange of research resources and provision of services
