FDP on Computational Research Tools for Data Processing, Analysis & Report Writing

One week Faculty Development Program (FDP) cum workshop on Computational Research Tools for Data Processing, Analysis & Report Writing was organized in hybrid mode by the Centre for Renewable Energy & Storage, Suresh Gyan Vihar University from 15th-21st January, 2024 in collaboration with SHODH LAB and Academic Staff College.

Expert sessions were delivered by Prof. Gaurav Saxena (Govt. PG College, Ajmer), Prof. Manoj Kumar (MNIT), Prof. Debasish Sarkar (MNIT) and Prof. Kamlendra Awasthi (MNIT) on the research ethics, fundamentals of LaTeX, Over Leaf, Beamer, data processing and analysis by using Origin, research presentation techniques, citation proficiency and scientific writing mastery by using Mendeley and Endnote. Overall 60+ faculties and scholars attended the event via online/ offline mode. It provided hands-on training experience to the participants during the interactive sessions. The program ended with a thank you note to all the speakers and participants from the convenors Prof. Ankur Jain (CRES) and Dr. Tarun Patodia (ShodhLab) together with Dr. Richa Sharma (ASC) followed by a poster launching ceremony of the next major event scheduled in the month of March’2024 the “International Symposium on Energy Storage Technologies for Sustainable Future (ESTSF-2024)”.

The FDP was very well-received by the participants both who were present in person as well as the ones who attended it online. The FDP was a “hands-on” Workshop where the participants were given live problems to tackle on the spot on their laptops; the utility and the usefulness of the entire exercise was enhanced manifold, simultaneously making the concepts clear for the participants.

Each session was followed by rigorous Q & A session, wherein the participants brought forth their doubts and question and the experts resolved the same with extreme patience and their expertise. It served the dual purpose of making the FDP cum Workshop not only interactive, livelier and meaningful, it also serve the purpose of instilling a basic sense of having acquired new knowledge in the minds of the participants which included working professionals as well as research scholars.
