9th CDP- Research Methodology and Data Analysis
Dates and Duration: 10-15th July 2023
Research is not only critical to the economic and social development of society; it is also critical to the mission of any University or academic institution. It is this research, which is the foundation for knowledge that makes possible much of the innovation and application that provides wider benefit. Research inculcates scientific and inductive thinking and it promotes the development of logical habits of thinking and organization. As Albert Einstein once remarked: "If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?" A need is always felt in quality-committed institutions to train the faculty and researcher in advanced research methodology in a manner that results in authentic and high-quality research, which has impact on the society, culture and future endeavours.
The present programme is designed to provide exposure to the participants on research problem formulation, application of appropriate research design and skills of data generation, data processing and statistical analysis at both, basic and advance level. This CDP is intended to sharpen teaching and research skills of teachers, researchers and trainers, so that they are able to publish their work in SCOPUS/WoS/ICI/UGC indexed journals.
The CDP platform provided an opportunity to participants to share their problems in data handling and interpretation. The CDP was conducted in online mode with emphasis on both learning and practice sessions.
