The National Institute of Advanced Studies (NIAS) has been organizing highly successful training programmes with support from the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India, for a select group of senior and mid-career scientist-administrators and technologists from various scientific and industrial organizations in the country.

Consistent with the mission of NIAS, this training programme emphasizes the development of leadership qualities through the integration of multidisciplinary knowledge. The participants will have interactive sessions and discussions with distinguished speakers drawn from different organizations and occupations. NIAS courses, conducted with the NIAS tradition of excellence with relevance have always attracted tremendous response in the context of institutional capacity building and participants also benefit from networking opportunities with experts and distinguished speakers during the two-week training programme. The lectures in the two-week training programme will be by eminent scientists, technologists, academic scholars, and professionals from the public and private sectors.

In the case of women scientists, this condition may be relaxed. No participation fee is involved for attending this fully residential programme. Your organization will have to bear the cost of travel to Bangalore and back. We would greatly appreciate receiving your nominations by Friday, 4 January 2019 in the enclosed (nomination and biodata) formats.
