ISEC Ph.D Students Alumni

Alumni

The ISEC Alumni Association is a key link between the Institute and its alumni. It has been formed with a prime objective of bridging the gap between the Institute and its PhD scholars who are placed in different corners of the globe. Its aim is to cultivate and enrich its relationship with the past and present Alma Mater. In order to maintain academic and professional relationship, the Alumni has been formed. This would help us to develop and maintain a mutually beneficial relationship and thereby to extend support and contribute to the life of the Institute and its various activities.

Membership

Membership to the Alumni is free of charge and is open to former full-time/part-time Ph.D students of ISEC. Those students who have not registered may kindly send their details along with present position, address, telephone numbers and email address to Dr. Malini L Tantri [email protected], or System Administrator [email protected] so as to enable us to maintain a complete and proper list of Alumni members and to upload to the website.

Alumni Meet

On the occasion of the fortieth year of its inception, the Institute for Social and Economic Change hosted the Grand Alumni Meet on 20-21 January, 2012. The first day’s session began with paying tribute to the founder of the institute Dr. VKRV Rao. Followed by a panel discussion of high academic quality. The entire ISEC community got together on the occasion and interacted with one another. There was also games organised for the Alumni members. In the evening, the students and associates of ISEC put up a grand cultural event. The second day began with the second panel discussion. The speakers were all from the alumni.

The first ISEC Ph.D Alumni meet was organised on 19th January 1997 as a part of the Silver Jubilee Celebrations. Dr. P.V. Shenoi, Director released the Volumes of "Who is Who", "Reminiscences" and Curriculum Vitae" of ISEC Ph.D Alumni on this occasion. Ph.D laureates nostalgically spoke about the excellent training they had received at ISEC for building up their career and in making a mark in whatever profession they were in.
