iPURSE

A regular and important event in the University calendar, iPURSE is the most prominent research forum where results of the latest research by the staff and students of the University are presented, discussed, and evaluated. It is also the occasion for the University academics to interact with researchers from other universities, research institutions, and representative industries, both local and overseas, creating an opportunity to initiate research partnerships. The constructive feedback that the researcher may gather from deliberations paves the way to new frontiers of research. Building international collaborations are essential for a developing nation like ours to import modern technical know-how and advances in research skills to our country. The true benefits of research are realized when research findings and recommendations are used to solve real-life problems and promote national development.

Universities bear the global responsibility of addressing issues that mankind encounters and finding scientific solutions for them in terms of research. Therefore, research has become an integral part of the university academics' career. Research trends in the present-day world have changed from subject-based studies to an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach - a shift that facilitates the scientists to discover solutions for most of the complex and multifaceted dilemmas of the world.
