Beloved Readers,
Let us stay connected…
The month of May begins with the celebration of international labourers' day honoring
workers. It is this time of the year when the sun is soaring high and we have to sweat it out.
It is also a time to take a break and unwind from the mundane activities which is a great way to
boost productivity later.
Summer is the period for students to venture into research activities and work on his/her
own research question. The Chancellor's summer research fellowship offers our university
students a unique opportunity to pursue basic research and encourages them to involve in
educational programs such as seminars, networking activities and competitions. Students will
gain invaluable work experience while acquiring a deeper knowledge of research besides
working with a faculty mentor with special expertise matched closely to their research
interests. Let us enjoy the fun-filled summer and get back refreshed, renewed and recharged
with a new vision, priority & perspective.
