I'm delighted to be the Top 1% Topper of the 12-week NPTEL course on “Smart Cities” offered by IIT Indore through the Swayam online platform.
My primary motivation for taking this course was to better guide postgraduate students working in this domain.
Receiving this Elite + Gold certificate with a consolidated score of 97% has further strengthened my confidence in contributing to this field through academia and research.
