Bhubaneswar: Centurion University organised a five-day Faculty Development Programme (FDP) on ‘Impact Oriented Education’ under the guidance of its Pro Vice-Chancellor Dr Biswajit Mishra.
The aim of the programme, held from June 19 to 24, was to equip academics with skills necessary to excel in careers as researchers and educators.
Around 30 academicians and researchers from some of India’s premier institutions and organisations like NALSAR Hyderabad, ICAR New Delhi, XIM University Bhubaneswar, Institute of Physics Bhubaneswar, NRDC Govt of India and IIT Bhubaneswar participated as speaker.
Faculty across every campus of Centurion University actively participated in the programme.
“In today’s rapidly evolving world, technology has revolutionised the way we impart education. As faculty, we must adapt and equip ourselves with the latest tools and innovative ideas to overcome any challenges that may arise. Active student participation during teaching sessions is pivotal, as modern pedagogy thrives on interactive engagement rather than a mere monologue,” IIT Bhubaneswar Director Prof. Shreepad Karmalkar said on the inaugural day.
Prof. Supriya Pattanayak, Vice-Chancellor of Centurion University, emphasised on “importance of upholding ethical standards in all professional endeavours, highlighting the positive atmosphere of professionalism.”
The FDP included nine sessions like Professionalism and Ethics, How to write publishable manuscript, research methodology, student counselling and mentoring, stress management through yoga, in the first three days and five sessions in the last two days were schools specific.
