Transient

The journal Transient is an attempt to provide a platform for researchers in different fields of science to showcase their research; an endeavour along the line of numerous other international, national and regional journals. The rationale for adding one more to the list of existing journals is that a lot of scientific research goes unpublished for the simple reason that most journals put great emphasis on the significance of the results or conclusions drawn from a particular research work; the exclusion of research, however simple or basic, from visible literature might lead researchers to keep on 'reinventing the wheel' causing loss of precious time. In Transient, we try to honour the endeavour and hard work put out by researchers in carrying out their work even though the outcome might not be 'paradigm-changing' by giving due recognition, without sacrificing scientific rigour, to the merits of the scientific content and methods of an article.

I am pleased to inform the release of the preprints of the the Xth volume of the Journal. This special volume is meticulously curated from the submissions to the International Seminar, "Climate Change: Impact and Resilience" that was organized by Assam Don Bosco University (ADBU). 

We are now inviting manuscripts for the XIth volume of Transient.

As we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of education, the importance of critical thinking, research, and collaboration becomes more vital than ever. Transient, as our college journal, serves as a beacon of intellectual engagement, offering every member a platform to not only showcase his/her talents but also to challenge existing perspectives and stimulate deeper thought.

In today’s world, where information is abundant but often unverified, the ability to think critically is a key skill for success. It is through rigorous inquiry and thoughtful reflection that we grow, both as individuals and as a community. Transient encourages the peer staff to ask the difficult questions, to explore beyond the surface, and to contribute to the discourse that shapes our collective future.

Research plays a crucial role in this process. It allows us to dive deeper into subjects, discover new insights, and stay ahead in a rapidly changing world. I urge each of you to make research an integral part of your academic journey, using it to fuel innovation and drive your aspirations forward.

At the same time, the power of peer interaction must not be underestimated. Our growth is amplified when we engage in dialogue with our peers, exchange ideas, and learn from one another’s experiences. Let us use Transient as a space to collaborate more often, to share our successes and our challenges, and to grow together as a community of thinkers and doers.

Publicity is another key aspect we must prioritize. It is not enough to simply produce good work—what we create and discover should be known, both within and beyond our college. Let Transient be the voice that amplifies our efforts, bringing attention to the hard work and creativity that defines our body. With the right visibility, we can inspire not only ourselves but others as well.

As we look ahead, I encourage each one of you to make full use of the opportunities that Transient offers. Let it be a space where ideas flourish, where research is celebrated, where peer engagement thrives, and where our collective work is recognized far and wide. Together, we can make Transient not just a journal, but a symbol of our intellectual vitality and a catalyst for growth and innovation.

With kind regards and best wishes,
