Short Term Courses

           These courses are of 2 or 3 days duration and are offered by the Centre’s faculty or honorary faculty along with other resource persons from the chosen University. Each course consists of a series of lectures in a chosen area at the University outside Bangalore. The target audience is typically the scientific community of the region, including students and teachers.

            The Centre bears the travel costs of the speakers, and pays them an honorarium, while the host institution takes care of local hospitality and arrangements for the course work. Twenty-two courses have been conducted so far and many more are being planned. Among the courses that have been conducted so far are Concepts in Chemistry at Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar, Finite Element Methods and Applications at the Siddaganga Institute of Technology, Tumkur, Frontier Lectures in Molecular Biology & Genetics at Mangalore University, Mangalore, Nanomaterials at SV University, Tirupati.
  
             A University interested in the possibility of conducting such a course may contact a faculty member of JNCASR whose research interests match closely with the proposed course content.
