The Vision
Chitkara International School (CIS) is a constituent institute of Chitkara Group and is positioned as one of the foremost schools in North India. CIS delivers a high-quality academic environment, with distinguished strength in pragmatic educational innovations, underpinned by the strong support of Chitkara University. In furtherance of the same and with the aim of promulgating interdisciplinary research, Chitkara International School (CIS) and Chitkara University, Himachal Pradesh (CUHP), has launched an overarching yet revolutionizing Collaborative Research Project (CRP) which facilitates collaboration between the faculty and students.
Transforming the World of Education
Recognizing the immense contribution of innovations in national growth, 2010-2020 was declared as the ‘Decade of Innovation’ by the Government of India. To contribute to this, CRP functions with the primary objective of working on innovative ideas and exploring joint research groups from Chitkara University, Himachal Pradesh and Chitkara International School.
By participating in the Collaborative Research Project, faculty members find colleagues with whom they can collaborate and students who may be interested in assisting with their projects. With this vision, 12-14 teams have been formed from both the institutes, Chitkara University, Himachal Pradesh and Chitkara International School to work on this initiative with Dr Sartajvir Singh, IPR Cell Coordinator, Chitkara University, Himachal Pradesh, as the mentor.
