Postgraduate students in Telangana universities will be able to work along with researchers in the national research institutions to gain hands-on-knowledge and also get exposure to research.
The Telangana State Council of Higher Education (TSCHE) wants to engage the national institutions in Hyderabad and is exploring some association with them to trigger research interest among youngsters. Hyderabad is surrounded by more than 150 national science and related research institutions and the potential association with them is being explored.
A senior official of the TSCHE said that the idea was floated with the Department of Science and Technology (DST) Secretary, S. Chandrasekhar when a team of the TSCHE met him in New Delhi recently. The same was brought to his attention when the DST Secretary was here to deliver the Convocation address of the JNTU Hyderabad a few days ago.
