The FPM Department at JIMS, Rohini organized a Research Scholar’s Meet on 30th July’2022 at the campus with the motive to bring all the research scholars under one roof so that they can share their research learnings & experiences with each other. Our research scholar, Ms. Rashika Malik anchored the entire event.
