Autumn meeting of International Thematic Group on Energy of BRICS Network University02.11.2022
November 2, 2022, an online meeting of the
International Thematic Group on Energy of the BRICS Network University (BRICS
NU) was held. It’s carried out several times a year for the coordinators of
partner universities of the BRICS Network University that are of energy group
members.
At the meeting, a presentation of the Indian Institute
of Technology Madras (IIT Madras), a new university for the BRICS NU, located
in Chennai, India, was presented, having joined the BRICS NU just this year. It
was founded in 1959, presently the university has over 10,000 Bachelor, Master
and Doctoral students. In the engineering field, it offers training courses
such as Aerospace Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Biotechnology, Chemical
Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical
Engineering, Engineering Design, Mechanical Engineering, Metals and Materials
Engineering, Ocean Engineering. The meeting participants were obviously
interested in the experience of IIT Madras in organizing programs for the joint
supervision of graduate students by scientists from partner universities. It
was decided to bring into the discussion on this work during next meeting.
MPEI presented the changes on the official website of
the International Thematic Group that allow to show the information about the
scientific departments of the partner Universities in English to simplify the
management of direct contacts with familiar scientific groups. The demanded
prerequisite form has been sent to all the coordinators.
IIT Bombay’s proposal for conducting an online
scientific conference for graduate students within the framework of the
thematic group on energy received a counter proposal from our University to
send graduate students to the International Scientific and Technical Conference
of Students and Postgraduates “Radioelectronics, Electrical Engineering and
Energy”, held in March, or rather to its English-language part as a section of
IEEE 5th REEPE 2023.
