The Ph.D. scholars had great interaction with professors and industrial personnel, who helped them understand the research gaps and requirements of industries to translate academic research into valuable products and several other aspects. There were positive interactions with eminent professors like Prof Magda Titirici from Imperial College of London, Prof Tristan Petit from Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin, Prof Anke Krueger from University of Wuerzburg, and several others.
