As a part of the international linkage degree program of Hiroshima University, “The joint workshop of Indian Institutes of Technology Bombay and Hiroshima University” was held at IIT Bombay (Sep 13, 2019). Faculty members from both universities participated and presented our research. After the workshop, we visited several laboratories. We also had a meeting with faculty members from two other departments (Centre for technology alternative for rural area and Centre for Environmental Science & Engineering) who did not participate in the workshop. It was a very exciting visit!
