Science Academies’ Summer Fellowship Programme at NCU

The three science academies in India viz., the Indian Academy of Sciences, Bengaluru; Indian National Science Academy, New Delhi and The National Academy of Sciences jointly awards several prestigious Summer Research Fellowships (SRF) to science and engineering students and teachers to work on short-term projects with the ‘Academy Fellows’ during two months every year, since 2007. Student Biswadeep Chakraborty, Jadapur University came to NCU under the special SRF scheme and worked at The NorthCap University (NCU), Gurugram under Dr Amitava Sen Gupta, Hon. Distinguished Research Professor, NCU from 15 May to 8 July 2017. 

Biswadeep Chakraborty’s work comprised of a technique of locating the shooter using wireless sensor networks. This is a theoretical simulation study to be followed up with some experimentation once the WSN experiments get going. Faculty member Ms Kusum Grewal, Dept of EECE, NCU mentored Biswadeep for technical knowledge sharing regarding wireless sensor networks and its implementation using MATLAB simulator. 

Faculty is advised to encourage our students to apply for similar Summer Fellowship programmes, the details of which can be accessed at www.ias.ac.in
