Regional Engineering College (CREC), is a federally
funded technical university and an institute of national
importance governed by an act passed by the Parliament
of India. The campus is situated near Chathamangalam,
22 kilometres (14 mi) north east of Calicut, on the

The faculty, students and research scholars are involved
in dedicated learning and research to explore, understand
and improve materials and processes from a fundamental
perspective. They pursue academic research leading to
the mission to introduce new functionalities into existing
materials, and to tailor-make materials with exceptional
qualities, which are the two major goals of nanoscience
and nanotechnology. The varied interests of the school
include study of nanoscale physical phenomena, experimental research in nanoscale ow and heat transfer, nanomaterials and composites, bio-nanotechnology and targeted drug delivery systems, optical measurements, combustion and nanoparticle fuel additives, synthesis of nanomaterials including carbon nanotubes, and discrete computational studies on nanoscale systems using molecular
dynamics simulations. The strong research vibe in the
school is also sustained by numerous sophisticated equipments that it houses, ranging from characterisation instruments to even electron microscopes.[5]
