The Ramanujan Fellowship is a scheme instituted by the Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB) under Department of Science and Technology (DST).  This fellowship is meant for brilliant Indian scientists and engineers from outside India who want to transition back to Indian academia, and take up scientific research positions in India.

Sci-ROI will be organizing a webinar on 4th June, Saturday focusing on the grant-writing process for this fellowship. We will have invited talks from the faculty who received the Ramanujan fellowship in the previous years followed by a panel discussion with representatives from the host institutions and DST-SERB. We hope to understand the perspectives of all three levels – the applicants, host institutes, and funding agency involved in the application/review process of this fellowship for the benefit of our members.

If you could not register on Zoom or the webinar reaches capacity, you can watch the livestreaming of the webinar on Youtube as well.

Webinar Schedule:

June 4th, 2022, Saturday
10:00 AM – 12:00 PM EST
