Rajalakshmi Engineering College (REC) is one of the leading ISO 9001-2000 certified and NAAC and NBA accredited engineering colleges established under self-financing scheme in 1997. The college has been growing from strength to strength in the last 12 years and moving ahead to become a Centre of Excellence in Engineering,Management Education, Research and Development.
The college is located in a serene atmosphere amidst many multinational companies in Thandalam, about 25 km from Chennai on the Bangalore National Highway (NH4), providing the right industrial ambience for the budding engineers. The institution currently offers 10 UG programs, 8 PG programs and 3 Research programs. For more information, please visit www.rajalakshmi.org
Centre of Excellence for MEMS & Microfludics (CEMM) at REC motivates the research activity in the field of MEMS and Micro-fluidics from design to fabrication of proto-types. The main objective of the center is to design and fabricate successful devices using non-silicon substrates and low-cost process flow suitable for mass production. The Center has the laboratory facilities such as National MEMS Design Centre, Elec-tronics Wet lab, UV Exposure room, Characterization lab and Thin Film Deposition Lab.
Recently, this center is augmented with Clean Room facilities of type ISO 6 and ISO 7. We designed and fabricated several micro devices such as Micro Tweezers, MEMS Gyroscope, Micro Heater, Tri-axes Accelerometer, Digital Microfluidics etc. un-der NPMASS and INUP Programs. We fabricate polymer micro-fluidic devices using soft lithography technique. We are carrying out sponsored research projects under various funding agencies such as DST, DRDO, AICTE and UGC. We also collaborate with Industries and National Research Laboratories.
