Society for Applied Microwave Electronics Engineering and Research

Society for Applied Microwave Electronics Engineering & Research (SAMEER) was set up as an autonomous Research and Development laboratory at Mumbai in 1984 under the then Department of Electronics, Government of India with a broad mandate to undertake Research and Development work in the areas of Microwave Engineering and Electromagnetic Engineering Technology. It is an offshoot of the special microwave products unit (SMPU) set up in 1977 at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) Mumbai. The centre of Electromagnetics, Chennai of the then Department of Electronics (DOE) was merged with SAMEER in 1987.

SAMEER Kolkata centre was set up in 1994 for research & Development in Millimetrewave Technology.

A new centre is being established at Navi Mumbai campus of SAMEER for augmentation of EMI/EMC FACILITY for CE Marking of Electronics products.
