The essentials of pursuing academic research was highlighted during the inauguration of the ECE association on Thursday, at the Thathai Periyar Government Institute of Technology (TPGIT), by Chief Guest Dr T Thiyagarajan, Head, Department of Instrumentation Engineering, Anna University, Chennai. “Learn software and hardware applications relevant to the research project first,” Thiyagarajan advised students. He also emphasised that the topic and area of interest should be innovative. By attending conferences, workshops, seminars, students could get insight and gain knowledge in this regard. E-resources could also help get more information. Once a theme was fixed, a plan to complete projects within the scheduled time frame was essential, he said. The students should also look out for tie-ups with industries to field test the application of the research project. Finally, the research work should be published in a journal, he added. TPGIT principal Arularasu presided over the function. R Sathyabama, HoD welcomed the gathering. K Beulah Suganthy proposed vote of thanks.
