Indian Embassy in Washington Launches Virtual Mentoring Program for Indian Students
The Indian Embassy in Washington has launched a new virtual mentoring program called "MARG" to connect Indian students and researchers with leading US universities. This initiative aims to provide participants with a unique opportunity to gain exposure to the latest developments in their fields of study, network with experts in the field, and explore potential career paths.
The program features renowned Indian-origin faculty from top US universities, such as Stanford, Purdue, the University of Maryland, and George Mason University. These experts will offer their mentorship and guidance to Indian students and researchers, sharing their insights and experiences. By participating in MARG, participants will have access to a wealth of knowledge and resources that can help them achieve their academic and professional goals.
The Indian Embassy believes that this program will play a crucial role in strengthening the academic-research-technology partnership between India and the United States. By fostering connections between students, researchers, and faculty from both countries, MARG will help to promote collaboration and innovation.
The inaugural session of the series featured a keynote address by Deputy Chief of Mission Ambassador Sripriya Ranganathan, who highlighted the growth of India's academic, research, skilling, and industrial ecosystem in critical and emerging technologies. She emphasized the importance of these sectors in enhancing the partnership between India and the United States and the potential for future collaboration.
