I have attended two workshops conducted Dr.
Rashmi Hebalkar for post graduate students planning to
do their M.Phil and doctoral studies and have benefited
immensely from the inputs shared in both these
workshops. The effectiveness of these workshops is in
the conceptual clarity that the sessions offer, as also the
sharing from her experiences and professional
expertise. I would strongly recommend all those keen
to pursue higher studies after their post graduation, to
attend her workshops on the same as it would give
them much needed clarity about effectively pursuing
their academic ambitions.
