Endowed Lecture Series

Guidelines

Resolution No. EFMC/09/2017: the EFMC considered the item and approved the proposal for an annual Endowed Lecture Series in every department and center of the institute. The expenditure on the scheme will be met out from the interest income of General Corpus. The scheme will support the travel of experts within India and a token honorarium of Rs. 10000/-. Bigger departments will be encouraged to have two endowed lecture series.

The departments will be encouraged to name the lecture series after an iconic national figure in the area of the department. He/she could even be an eminent alumnus or a former faculty of the department who may have either made significant contributions to his/her field of research or contributed significantly to the establishment and growth of the department. Necessary permissions in this regard will be sought from the concerned family if required.
