“Dr Rajan helped immensely with the project from start to finish. He praised me at the very beginning that he really liked my research question and challenged me to work hard to submit my research paper to the ITNAC.”
The Industry Project completed as part of her Master of Engineering course was supervised by Dr Rajan Kadel in coordination with Dr Deepani B. Guruge and Sharly J. Halder. In an interview about the project, Archana gave credit to the MIT project supervisors and other academics who supported her in this journey.
Archana said she used to be meek and shy and that this opportunity and the support she received from MIT has transformed her confidence. MIT congratulates Archana on this exceptional achievement and looks forward to the publication of the final paper in 2020.
