The session was conducted by Dr. Preethi N, Associate Professor at the Center for Research, Lavasa Campus. Known for her expertise in machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), and neural networks, Dr. Preethi has a commendable academic track record, with several research publications, patents, and honors to her name. Her approachable and insightful style made the session both informative and engaging for the audience.
Dr. Preethi began the session by breaking down the concept of research in a way that felt accessible and inspiring. She highlighted that innovation isn’t always about creating something entirely new—it can also be about seeing existing ideas in a fresh light or applying knowledge in new ways. She emphasized that research is both a creative and systematic process that helps us better understand the world and solve real problems.
Dr. Preethi then walked the students through the step-by-step process of writing a research paper, from identifying a topic and reviewing existing literature to designing methodology, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions. What made the session especially valuable was how she broke down each stage using relatable examples and simple language, making it less intimidating for students who are new to research.
The session ended with a vibrant Q&A, where students asked about topic selection, publication opportunities, time management, and research-writing techniques. Dr. Preethi answered every question patiently, offering useful tips and encouraging students to make the most of the support systems available on campus.
In all, the session was not just informative—it was truly empowering. It helped students see research not just as an academic requirement, but as a meaningful journey of exploration and impact. With clearer direction, practical advice, and plenty of inspiration, students left the room ready to turn their ideas into innovation.
