THIS YEAr, THE SUMMER SCHOOL WILL BE HYBRID!
We will be hosting all modules online and in-person in Mumbai :)
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis and seats will be reserved on a first-cum-first basis.
WHY DO YOU NEED IT?
• Research is an important part of the undergraduate, and postgraduate curricula in India and abroad.
• Research can be pursued by individuals in any educational or vocational field.
• Knowledge of the basics in research helps to understand and critically analyse scholarly work.
• Research helps to answer questions in a scientific manner rather than basing your conclusions on intuition, “common sense” or others’ views.
HOW DO WE TEACH RESEARCH?
The Summer School aims to cover the diverse elements of modern research. Successful applicants will be required to take an online pre-requisite course to take part in the Summer School. We use practical problems and examples from daily life to explain course content. Participants’ ideas will be built upon and the Summer School will be contextualized to suit their needs and/or interests. The Summer School aims to expose participants to the field of research through activity-based learning. Participants will be given take-home exercises and tasked with generating their research output, which will be presented on the concluding day of the Summer School. This will ensure that participants can successfully apply research skills to their research ideas independently.

Testimonials for the ninth Annual Research Summer School (2024)
"I will take away the use of the various analytical and citation softwares introduced in this course and how I can use it on a more frequent basis."
Kyle Concessio (Student, Management)
"This course was a great revision for me which would further help me compose a research proposal for PhD. I learnt how to follow a systematic procedure to compose a proposal. The jargon free nature of the workshop was something I would appreciate. I also learnt about the open-science movement and all other scientific events in vogue."
Prarthi Ghosh (Student, Psychology)
"The best thing about the Summer School is the team- there is so much to learn from each of them about research. I liked the combination of the Udemy course and Summer school together. There was also an interactive approach where there is a small group which makes it more focused and personalized type of an experience"
Siddhi Sanap (Student, Economics)
