Research plays a critical role in both knowledge inventory and transformation at various levels in any growing economy. At Alliance, we firmly believe in the importance of research and hence our conscious step towards setting up various centers for research. This predominantly is to bring together like-minded individuals from various disciplines, industries and backgrounds to amalgamate on focused research in various areas. This endeavor would generate new ideas and promote path-breaking solutions to pertinent problems across industry verticals, academia and the society at large.

Center for Social Impact and Research (CSIR)
Being an institute for higher learning, Alliance University willingly has agreed to shoulder a great responsibility in “giving back to the society”. In addition to its ongoing CSR activities, a separate research arm would focus on social causes.

In particular, there will be a focus on encouraging and empowering communities to attain “sustainable living” through indigenous practices backed by modern technologies as needed. This will encompass areas of education, health, water and energy conservation.

The center would focus on building partnerships with concerned stakeholders, identifying areas of immediate attention and implement feasible solutions for the betterment of the community at large. Researchers, subject matter experts and volunteers could add value to the team by aligning to individual projects based on their interest and contribute towards greater societal impact.
