SDM IPR Cell is established to educate its stake holders : students, faculty and others about one of the most important and relevant issues of our times: Intellectual Property. Properties have ruled human minds since time immemorial and in recent years technologically created and crafted properties such as algorithms and gene sequences are overshadowing the traditionally adored properties such as land, factory etc.

The first and foremost objective of SDM IPR cell is to bring a desired degree of awareness about these intellectual property issues such as creating them, protecting them and harnessing them for personal, professional and social causes.

This SDM IPR intends to do with a set of well conceived and thoroughly planned activities such as invited lectures, IPR clinics and design of curriculum to mention the few.
