Our topic was: "From Global to Local: Environmental Regulation & Economic Integration". We had to submit a 20 page report and present for exactly 10 minutes to support our stance. Within our topic's group, we were awarded 1st Runners Up.

  7. Tutored “Deep Learning” Workshop at IIT Kharagpur – Summer 2015

    8. Six weeks into the internship, my advisor, Dr. Debdoot Sheet, organized a workshop where Deep Learning would be explained using the rasmesburgpalm toolbox on MATLAB. Along with the PhD and masters students, he also asked me to be a Teaching Assistant as I had a good grasp over the toolbox and understood common mistakes most beginners make. This was a big honor as being asked to assist in a technical workshop during the first internship itself gave me confidence in my learning ability and technical skills. The institute recognized my effort with a plaque.

  8. Winner of 12th AUS Intercollegiate Debate Competition – Spring 2015

    9. An annual debate competition hosted by AUS where 40 students from 12 universities take part in on an annual basis.Our team got finalized a mere 3 hours before the debate which gave us only 3 hours to prepare for the first round while others got more than 24 hours.
