Dhar India Studies, Media School host graduate networking event
The Dhar India Studies program and The Media School hosted a networking event exclusively for graduate students studying issues and topics related to South Asia. The event — titled “Studying South Asia: A Graduate Student Networking Event” — was held on Feb. 15.
The event was attended by graduate students, doctoral candidates, faculty, and staff members at IU. The event was also attended by people belonging to South Asian countries who were looking for an opportunity to interact with the wider South Asian community on the campus.
Students whose work is focused on South Asia gave brief introductions about their research interests and approaches and any current work, including theses and dissertation projects.
The goal of the community-building event was to bring together graduate students from multiple disciplines across IU for everyone to learn more about each other’s South Asia-related research interests.
