ACTIVITIES /PARTICIPATIONS
ACTIVITIES
I was one of the organizing members of the IAPT–UGCP Workshop in Physics & Astronomy, conducted at BITS Pilani, Goa Campus, from 19–22 December 2019. The workshop was organized for undergraduate merit students in Physics, selected based on national-level NGPE examination rankings, as well as merit UG Physics students from Goa colleges. Resource persons included faculty from the BITS Physics Department and IUCAA, Pune. The workshop was partly funded by IUCAA and partly by IAPT.
WORKSHOPS
- Organised a Workshop on Arduino – Introduction to Arduino at Parvatibai Chowgule College
- Participated in DAE-BRNS Theme Meeting on Transport of Charged Particles at BARC, Mumbai on January 13, 2024.
