India's ability to acquire a leadership position in the world, in the economic, demographic and intellectual fronts, would greatly depend on her ability to consolidate and take a vantage position in science & technology. Highly skilled S&T personnel adequately trained to face the challenges of inter-disciplinary and trans- disciplinary transformation of the biological and engineering sciences will command the workspace of tomorrow. Established in 2010 as an 'Institution of National Importance', the Academy of Scientific & Innovative Research (AcSIR) has adopted the mandate to create and train some of the best of tomorrow's Science & Technology leaders through a combination of innovative and novel curricula, pedagogy and evaluation. AcSIR's focus will be on imparting instruction and providing research opportunities in such areas as are not routinely taught in regular academic universities in India.
