      The Crossian Research Forum was launched in 2005 to serve as a focal point for research. It provides investigators the researchers with the information and resources necessary for pursuing research. It motivates the faculty to undertake major and minor projects. It also encourages the faculty, research scholars and students to attend seminars/ conferences/ workshops/ symposiums; and present papers at national and international conferences.

      To inculcate the spirit of research and to bring together the scholars and faculty of arts and science to share and discuss their findings on a common platform, the Research Forum organizes Seminars/ Workshops/ Conferences on multidisciplinary subjects every year. The research papers presented in the conferences are published in the proceedings with ISBN. Crossian Research Forum has link with Kanyakumari Academy of Arts and Science.

      Crossian Resonance, a Multi-disciplinary Biannual journal was launched in 2010 with an ISSN number 09768-5417 to uphold the publishing standard and provide opportunity and space for the research scholars and faculty of this institution and other.

       In the last few years we have had many exciting changes transpiring in the College. The Crossian Research Forum began a joint functioning with the Research Advisory Committee, Research Ethics Committee and Students Research Forum. It aims at widening the scope of research opportunities.

      The Research Advisory Committee and the Research Ethics Committee were established in the academic year 2020-2021 to provide guidance for project proposals and to follow the research ethics. Students Research Forum was initiated in the year 2018 to foster the research aptitude in students to respond to the current social demands. The research activities in the Institution define the intellectual climate of our institution. 

       Thanks to everyone who has contributed for the development of Crossian Research Forum. We unitedly work for the growth and diversify our programmes towards the betterment of our students and faculty.
