Call for Student Research Forum (SRF)

A Student Research Forum (SRF) will be organized to promote and encourage young researchers in Test Technology during the 2024 Asian Test Symposium (ATS). This forum is a great opportunity for Bachelor and Masters students who have completed their respective thesis within the last 12 months or who are close to completing their thesis to present their work to a broad audience. This forum will help students interact with pioneers in their research domain and get valuable feedback on their work. The forum may also help students to establish contacts for entering the job market. Entries from eligible young researchers across India are invited for the Student Research Forum.
