An Advanced Space Research Group (ASRG) has been established for all collaborative research activities of IIST with all R&D centres of ISRO. ASRG will ensure smooth coordination and oversee effective implementation of ISRO-IIST joint research activities. An Empowered Overseeing Committee (EOC) which comprises of members from all research centres of ISRO is the apex body to ASRG. EOC will review and decide on all actions related to the activities of ASRG to ensure smooth functioning of the joint research activities. IIST Link Unit at ISRO Centres is also established to have effective coordination of the joint research programmes. The link unit at each Centre is headed by the member representing that Centre in EOC and is supported by a committee identified by the Centre Director. This unit functions as a single window agency for all joint research programmes with IIST for providing the necessary inputs and also for ensuring the smooth coordination. Currently Dr. Kuruvilla Joseph, Outstanding Professor, Registrar, and Dean Academics, IIST is the Chairman of EOC and Shri Harish C.S., is the Professor of Practice, IIST & Chairman of ASRG.
