STUDENT RESEARCH
No other activity provides as many benefits to students who want to get ahead than student research. Benefits of conducting research include expanding understanding of your academic field; establishing valuable connections with faculty; gaining academic experiences that expand their resume.
Tamil Nadu State Council for Science and Technology has sponsored and financed two of the projects guided by Dr.S.Richard during 2000-2001 (“Computer Numerical Control of Indexing Mechanisms using Visual Basic”) and 2002-2003 (“Fabrication of Palmyra Tree Climber”) for Rs. 10,000 each.
