Abstract: In this paper, the authors have presented a detailed literature review and the expected outcome from their research work. More than 100 relevant literary works have been consulted and reviewed for this study. The reviews shows that scientometric analysis is creating more visibility for the researches being carried out across the institutions. Scientometric tools are increasingly being used for assessments of qualitative and quantitative scientific research outcomes. This analytical study focuses on scientific and research productivity of the scientists and technologists working in engineering colleges of Karnataka. The Authors believe that the outcome of study will be useful in measuring research productivity, trends, collaborations and recognitions. Assessment of research performance by using scientometric method is a valuable technique for the identification of new scientific and technological knowledge. *The growth of literary works have become a main concern for scientists, researchers and library professionals as they have to keep themselves abreast* with the new developments in their subjects. It was seen from the available literary works that little study has been done in this field.
