TIFR was included in the 12B list of UGC.

Honoraria for the thesis examiners were revised from Rs.5000 to Rs.10000 (for Ph.D. thesis). Honoraria for viva- voce and M.Sc. theses were also correspondingly revised upwards, starting October 2018.

The “University Rules and Procedures” document was updated.

In the Main Campus, arrangements were made to provide on-campus accommodation to all incoming Ph.D. students. With timely room-transfers of students (and more students completing their PhDs on time), this may be made a regular feature.

In the Main Campus, the Sarojini Damodaran Fellowships for the travel of students abroad for collaborations and conferences, as well as for inviting eminent visitors to TIFR, has been established.

The online module for Visiting Students Research Programme selections has now been developed in-house in TIFR Colaba and will be used for the 2019 VSRP program. Earlier, software developed by an external agency was being used.

The Subject Board for Mathematics changed their admission procedures for their Main Campus operations, eliminating the interviews, but having a written test (long answers) which will help judge the mathematical skills of the students in a more reliable way. The Subject Board for Physics also implemented a second written test with long

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

answers, and only interview students selected through it for the admissions to the Physics programmes at the Main Campus.

Year-long programmes, bringing external experts to educate all campus members (faculty, students, staff) on sexual harassment laws and procedures, have been started in NCBS Bengaluru.

An online alumni portal has been launched in NCBS Bengaluru to facilitate interactions with alumni and to initiate activities in alumni groups around the world.

Some formal mechanisms to improve writing was put in place for the students from the NCBS, Bengaluru. There were multiple faculty-taught courses on scientific writing, and there was a tie-up with Cactus Communications for thesis editing services.

International travel awards for students from NCBS, Bengaluru was instituted by raising funds from philanthropic sources.

Computerization of University Cell procedures is being carried out in steps. Synopsis reports and course feedback forms are now already computerized for some Subject Boards, the same will be done for the forms for Registration, thesis submission, etc.

To make it easier for the women candidates to come to TIFR Main Campus to give admission interviews, it has been planned to provide accommodation for unaccompanied women interview candidates for Physics, Maths, and C&SS, where the number of such candidates is generally low. TIFR Physics Graduate School will complete 50 years in 2019. Iw was decided to organize an event celebrating the 50 years of Graduate School (GS50), and showcasing its achievements so far, is being organized. This will be a two-day meeting at the beginning of Nov 2019.

1.4 Feedback System 1.4.1 Whether structured feedback received from all the stakeholders. Students Teachers Employers Alumni Parents Yes Yes No No No

1.4.2 How the feedback obtained is being analyzed and utilized for the overall development of the institution? (maximum 500 words) On the academic front, the online anonymous feedback system is used for students where the questionnaire in a Google form is distributed and students are asked to fill it without disclosing their identity. This exercise is carried out at the end of each semester. Some programmes like PhD-Phys at the Main Campus engages with the students twice in a semester to obtain this feedback about the courses taught, in the middle of a semester and at the end of the semester before the final examination. The middle of the semester feedback is used to make appropriate changes in the teaching like pace, the difficulty level of the assignments, etc. For each course, the students evaluate the pedagogical aspects such as course contents, course methodology, pedagogical ability, expertise, originality, personal skills with students, the overall impact of the course, etc. This feedback is used by the teachers to improve the courses. Both the sets of feedbacks are shared with the course instructors. The feedback also includes that on the tutorials and tutors. In some programmes, feedbacks about the course syllabi are also obtained and then the respective subject board carries out the fine-tuning of the syllabi based on this feedback from teachers and students. In HBCSE, at the end of the entire course work by a student, comprehensive feedback is obtained. The feedback is factored into redesigning the overall course structure. On the campus life issues, regular feedback on hostel issues is also obtained by the Hostel Committee from hostel residents in NCRA every 2-3 months, and action is taken based on this input. NCRA has also been obtaining feedback from the alumni. For that purpose, a committee has been formed to review the Graduate School structure and courses; the committee contains faculty members from IUCAA and NCRA, who jointly conduct the Graduate School. The feedback from the alumni is being discussed by this committee and will inform proposed changes in the Graduate School structure and courses.

Students have interactive classroom sessions, and are engaged with the demonstrations using computational and theoretical modeling and simulations.

2.3.2 Student mentoring system available in the institution? Give details (maximum 500 words) Across all the subject boards, each student gets a thesis committee usually comprised of three members, one of whom is the thesis advisor of the student. This committee is usually formed at the time of Ph.D. registration. The primary objective of this committee is to actively mentor the student throughout his/her thesis work by regularly meeting and discussing various issues

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

pertaining to the thesis work progress. This committee meets the student at least once every year to take stock of the student's progress. Apart from that, the members of the committee (other than the thesis advisor) regularly interact with the student informally and discuss issues that the student is facing and offer help if required to address them. The committee gives a report on the student's progress at the end of the academic year which is taken into consideration while deciding the extension of the research fellowship of the student. Any grievances that arise for the student are first brought to the TC that actively seeks to address the issues and provide redressal for the student. In the Biology Subject Board, the thesis committee actively mentors the student right from his/her entry to the graduate school discussing choices of courses, details of thesis work, etc. In the Physics Subject Board, prior to registration for the thesis, the student is either assigned to a mentor or a three-member internal committee is formed to actively mentor the student. The mentor discusses various academic as well as non-academic issues with the students to help them adjust to the graduate student life at the institute. The mentors also discuss any problems for which the students need assistance of any kind. In the mathematics subject board, the initial couple of years involve rigorous course work where the feedback from the instructors and graduate studies committee is taken regularly and used to mentor students through their course work. In the Science Education subject board, every new student is assigned to a mentor who guides the student through the course work. At the end of two years, the student is asked to take a comprehensive exam and then carry out fieldwork. The outcome of these activities results in the student joining a thesis advisor for the desired thesis problem. For the students who join the MSc programme, their academic progress is monitored regularly by faculty members of the respective department. The students give regular seminar presentations which are attended by all the faculties and appropriate feedback is given to them.

TIFR has different dedicated sections that help in the maintenance and utilization of academic, physical, and support facilities that help in smooth operations of its research as well as teaching. The physical infrastructure such as buildings, power supply, air-conditioning, and ventilation, water supply is looked after by the Technical Services (TSR) section. Similar technical committees are present in all the off campuses at Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad. For building sophisticated scientific equipment there is a dedicated Central Workshop (CWK) apart from smaller workshops in different academic departments. The Central Workshop is equipped with precision fabrication facilities including several computer-controlled CNC machines. There is also a separate Low-Temperature facility (LTF) that provides cryogenic liquids (helium and nitrogen) for scientific experiments to all users in the institute. The state-of-the-art equipment present in all the campuses are maintained by specific academic departments but are available for all users across the institute. The advanced equipment for research and education is maintained by a 100-strong highly skilled permanent scientific personnel attached to various departments. For all the departments on the main campus, TIFR provides common computing facilities through its Computer Centre and Communication Facilities (CCCF). It hosts an email server, web-server, High-performance computing (HPC), and several workstations. It also provides seamless WiFi connectivity throughout the campus. The section also supervises the activities of Lecture Theater and Auditorium given the increasing importance of ICT in organizing lectures/seminars/virtual meetings over the internet. Similar facilities are also available at each of the campuses. For any technical work to be carried out by the centralized technical team, an institute member can make an online request through the DataNet, a dedicated centralized management portal which has been developed in-house. Laboratory space is allocated by the Space Allocation Committee, which keeps track of the needs of the Departments and their research programs for space. The space for laboratory and offices are allocated based on scientific merit and equitable distribution. Upon the retirement of a faculty member or the winding up

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

of a laboratory, space is returned to the committee for further allocation. This ensures efficient utilization of space. The Main Campus has a gymnasium, indoor badminton court, Yoga rooms, and two large playgrounds for football /cricket athletics. These facilities are maintained by the TIFR Sports Club. Similarly, the hostel, canteen, and other facilities are looked after by the respective committees comprised of representations from faculties, administrative, technical, and scientific staff as well as students. Similar arrangements are also in place at all the off campuses.

6.1.1 Mention two practices of decentralization and participative management during the last year (maximum 500 words)

The Scientific Information Resource Center of the institute on the Main Campus houses books, journals in the hard copy format as well as the electronic format. The library staff is generally responsible for running this facility during office hours. However, beyond office hours this facility is kept functional by the students. Students assign duties among themselves and take charge of the library and keep it functional till midnight during weekdays and till late night on holidays. During these after office hours, the student in-charge is responsible for maintaining the library premises functional for the institute members, issue and accept returned books, and appropriately keep them in the library office so that the library staff can handle them appropriately on the next working day.

TIFR Houses the High FIeld NMR National Facility and the institute has constituted the NMR Management Advisory Committee which has members from TIFR Mumbai and TIFR Hyderabad along with external members along with the representatives from DST, DBT, and CSIR. This committee concerns itself with the overall management of the National Facility for High Field NMR and formulation of academic programmes and policies for developing the Facility as an outstanding research establishment.

6.1.2 Does the institution have a Management Information System (MIS)? Yes/No/Partial:

Yes

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

6.2 Strategy Development and Deployment

6.2.1 Quality improvement strategies adopted by the institution for each of the following (within 100 words each):

Curriculum Development TIFR selects its students via a nationwide competitive examination followed by interviews, for which more than 20000 students appear every year. As a result, we get very good students, and our challenge is to make them even better and to help them develop their latent scientific talent so that they become comparable to their peers in the best universities across the world. From the teaching perspective, this involves keeping a continuous tab of new developments in the subjects and going on modifying our course contents in their light. Besides this continuous development, every few years the various Subject Boards revisit their syllabi and update them. We also introduce graduate students to the research groups in the institute working in the frontline areas of research in the form of lab visits and semester-long projects. This helps in molding their scientific talent to absorbs the ways of doing frontline scientific research.

Teaching and Learning From the learning perspective, the TIFR endeavors to provide an enabling environment to our students, which is rich in intellectual stimulation, and at the same time has enough interaction with scientists in the area and supervision and feedback by the teachers. The time they spend in the excellent library and laboratories that we have built over the years are of great help to the students to learn their discipline, in conjunction with our formal courses and examinations. We always try to bring a sense of creative play to all our teaching/learning interactions. Short laboratory orientations and semester-long projects are part of these efforts where students are introduced to the ways of carrying out the front line scientific research. This also helps students get familiar with the research area closest to their choice.

Examination and The rules for extensions of students were formalized, in the background of the increase in the Evaluation student fellowships and restriction on the time that be taken for Ph.D. The coursework related rules for Ph.D. registration are strictly adhered to.

Research and Each faculty of the institute is encouraged to apply for grants to fund their research activities. This Development includes the periodic plan proposals to the Department of Atomic Energy. These proposals are vetted at the institute level before their submission to the funding agencies. Moreover, a periodic review is carried out for various departments and centers where the external subject experts’

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

committee comprised of the world-renowned scientists visits the institute and interacts with the institute members, and gives a detailed assessment of the activities of the departments. Institute strongly encourages collaborations and research visits by the members.

Library, ICT and Physical The library committee oversees the functioning of the library, and a computer committee oversees Infrastructure / the ICT infrastructure. Continuous efforts are made to expand access to online journals as well as Instrumentation the book collection. Members are encouraged to suggest new reference books and textbooks be added to the existing collection. Efforts are made to connect all the libraries across various centres of TIFR via VPN. The computer committee is responsible for the upgrade of the ICT infrastructure both in terms of hardware and software. Campus-wide WiFi connectivity is also implemented on all the campuses. Video conferencing units are added for remote meeting organization.

Human Resource Our recruitment of the faculty entirely focuses on the research achievements and scholarship of the Management candidates. This way, we are able to recruit the best scientific manpower in the country, and also the cream of returning young Indian scientists who have been awarded their Ph.Ds or postdoctoral fellowships abroad. TIFR follows the Tenure Track system for the young faculty members joining the institute. Once a young faculty member joins TIFR, he/she begins to take part in the nurture of students, and by and by assumes more responsibilities including lecturing and being the formal guide of a student. Thus, our faculty members begin as excellent scientists and then grow into the role of active and enthusiastic teachers. Besides the Faculty, we have a large support staff. Our policy is to treat them as partners in our larger aims and to encourage them to take responsibility, to make innovations, and to grow with the job.

Industry Interaction / There have been some research projects funded by the industry, and some industries have formal Collaboration MoUs with TIFR that facilitate collaborations. Internships of people from the industry in TIFR, and access to industry-level technology to TIFR members, has been of mutual benefit.

Admission of Students The additional written test was introduced by the Subject Board of Physics in the selection process of the research scholar at the Main Campus. This written test is comprised of descriptive problem- solving questions and the candidates shortlisted for the interviews were asked to give this test. The result of the test was used to further filter the candidates for the interviews.

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

6.2.2 Implementation of e-governance in areas of operations:

Planning and TIFR has an internal Information Systems Development Group, with dedicated staff. The ISDG looks after Development the information technology requirements and plan of execution for the Institute, developing online procedures for various academic, administrative, and financial processes in the Institute, including the Colaba campus and the Centres and Field Stations. The ISDG works in close collaboration with the relevant Sections of the Institute, adapting existent systems for online functioning and developing new procedures, if necessary to facilitate these.

Administration The movement of files with approval from authorities at successively higher levels is gradually being moved to Datanet and LDAP, though the process is not complete. This includes applications, such as leave, reimbursement, LTC applications, etc. On the financial side, the tendering process is now largely electronic. Most bookings of rooms, accommodation, transport, canteen facilities, photographic cell, etc. are now done electronically. Bidding for residential accommodation in Institute quarters is done purely electronically.

Finance and TIFR has built its own Integrated Information System (TIIS), which is an integrated Enterprise Resource Accounts Planning (ERP) solution for TIFR which includes Personal Information System, Payroll, Pension, Provident Fund, Procurements, Material Receipts, Inventory, Budget, Accounting, Finance, and Accommodation. TIIS was implemented at TIFR Main Campus and has been implemented on other campuses except one. In addition to TIIS, Datanet provides information to staff members on their desktops, on e.g. service record, salary, purchase orders, indent status, etc. Financial transactions of some of the government departments are done through the PFMS software.

Student Admission The nationwide written entrance test of TIFR, GS2019, was made computer-based this year. It was and Support conducted with the help of Tata Consulting Services in multiple Centres (more than 30) across India. The process includes the online application process, generation of the hall tickets, conducting the online written test for all the subjects, evaluating the results based on the answers keys provided, preparing the results, and also the relevant statistics and archiving the records for any queries in the future. The overall experience was very positive and it is planned to continue with the computer-based tests in the future.

Examination Since the student to faculty ratio is very small pan-TIFR, the need for adopting e-governance has not been felt so far.

7.2 Best Practices

Describe at least two institutional best practices

Upload details of two best practices successfully implemented by the institution as per NAAC format in your institution website, provide the link

Best Practice 1: Regular independent international reviews of research activities of Departments/Centres

1. Title of the Practice Regular independent international reviews of research activities of Departments/Centres

2. Objectives of the Practice The objective of the international peer review is to evaluate the performance of the department/centre vis a vis similar research units across the world. The basic principle is to have an independent external committee that is composed of leading experts in the field from across the world review the performance of the unit (across all metrics, including student training, quality and impact of research, etc.). Rather than focusing on quantitative metrics alone, the review committees are encouraged to conduct thorough reviews which take several months and include detailed inputs from faculty, staff and students. The outcome is to identify strengths and weaknesses, to prioritize research areas, and to ensure scientific excellence.

3. The Context or challenging issues Given TIFR’s excellent standing internationally, there were no major challenges in designing and implementing this practice. Leading experts from across the world have generally been willing to put in the effort to do a detailed review and have provided insightful and useful suggestions regarding the way forward. However, since TIFR is a large multidisciplinary research institution, with its Departments and Centres operate within their own unique context, care has to be taken to set the terms of reference carefully for each unit, to accommodate the unit’s specific character, while at the same time ensuring that the overall review process across TIFR adheres to consistent and high standards.

4. The Practice Review panels are appointed by the Director TIFR. The review panel is provided with extensive reports on the department, including details of student and teaching related issues, research, profiles of each member, management structure, plans for the future etc. prior to their visit. During the visit the panel also has detailed discussions with all sections of the

123

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

department/centre. Following this, the committee submits a confidential report to the Director. At each stage the integrity of the process is maintained by removing or addressing any potential conflicts of interest, and ensuring confidentiality of the final reports. This allows the committee to be candid, and provide both positive and negative feedback. Such detailed reviews are highly unusual in the context of Indian higher education organizations. In general these institutions are reviewed only during an accreditation or some such similar process. A review which does not lead to any formal certification is very unusual. Nor is it common for an Indian institution to be reviewed against international yardsticks. As mentioned above there have not been any major constraints or limitations in carrying out this process.

5. Evidence of Success The success of this process is demonstrated by multiple lines of evidence: (a) that international research leaders are willing to provide a significant amount of time to participate in the process; (b) that the process has now gone on for multiple decades; (c) that the committee recommendations have been used to make important changes to the research practices of Departments and Centres; (d) that TIFR’s international reputation for excellence in student training and research has been maintained for the last several decades.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required No major problems have been encountered, and the resources required are modest. However such reviews do require substantial investment of time and manpower on the part of TIFR. It is important that reviews are initiated and completed in a timely manner, as the comments must be kept up-to-date relative to the rapid movement of each scientific discipline. By its very nature this process is time consuming, both for the committee as well as the department. It must be supported by efficient administrative staff, confidential processes, rapid response times to any committee requests. This requires the institution to plan years in advance and dedicate appropriate resources and manpower to the process.

7. Notes (Optional) None.

124

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

Best Practice 2: TIFR Frontiers of Science

1. Title of the Practice TIFR Frontiers of Science

2. Objectives of the Practice The annual “Frontiers of Science” programme, provides a unique opportunity for 9th/10th standard students and teachers from selected schools to visit TIFR on a Sunday, for an interesting mix of laboratory visits, engaging lectures and science demonstrations. A wide cross section of schools, especially those from a rural or under-served background are invited to this inclusive event.

3. The Context or challenging issues: The Science Popularization and Public Outreach Committee (SPPOC) of TIFR endeavours to convey the exciting developments in science and technology to the general public with a special emphasis on showcasing research being done in TIFR. An important focus of this effort is to reach out to school/college students and teachers, especially in under- served communities, and to inspire students to pursue a career in basic sciences.

A major problem is that most high-school students have almost no exposure to the real-world research environment. At best, they are limited to the experience of their school laboratory. In most schools, the science laboratory class, if it exists, is a routine boring ritual that does not excite students about science. Unfortunately, students have to choose an academic stream after class X, and many of them drop science. Hence, an effort to showcase modern research labs to a high school audience and permit them to engage with young researchers is important.

4. The Practice The Frontiers of Science event is specially curated event specifically aimed at high school students, with a carefully chosen combination of visits to many of TIFR's state-of-the-art research laboratories and facilities, lectures by graduate students, and exciting science demonstrations. A key feature of FoS is that it is mainly a student managed event, with a lot of interaction between the TIFR graduate students and the visitors. The visiting groups are welcomed and guided through the day, and through the campus by students, the lectures/demonstrations are mainly given by students, and in most labs, the visits are also conducted by student researchers. This engagement with young ambassadors of TIFR’s science significantly encourages interaction and questions without the typical inhibition of open discussions with older teachers that is often seen in school students.

125

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

In recent years, about 40 labs and facilities are open for visits. Each visiting group gets to visit 3-4 labs, listen to two lectures on different topics in mathematics and science by students, attend a “How to become a scientist?” talk by a young faculty member, and participate in an interactive science demonstration. The selection of speakers, local hosts for each visiting group, volunteers for demonstrations etc. is carefully done to ensure an equitable gender balance in all the activities. We also ensure a gender balance in the students invited for the programme.

A key feature of our programme is the inclusion of schools from various locations across Mumbai, both English and vernacular medium, as well as from schools from under-served rural areas, e.g. FoS 2019 saw representation from talukas like Niphad, Mangaon, Shahapur, Wada, Sillod, Paithan, Shirvardhan, Bhiwandi, Palghar etc. Apart from traditional school groups, we also invite students in the local community – e.g. children of employees in the local police station, fire brigade, post office, banks etc. as well as those of our own employees.

5. Evidence of Success The requests for participation at FoS have steadily increased over the years, and we have expanded from a small exploratory programme with only about 100 students in 2003 to an large event with 2400 visitors in 2019 with multiple batches of students participating in different activities in parallel. This growth is summarized below.

Year Visitors at TIFR Frontiers of Science 2010 650 2011 760 2012 760 2013 1400 2014 1400 2015 1500 2016 1700 2017 1700 2018 2100 2019 2400

126

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

A key aspect that has helped us fine-tune the programme is the detailed feedback, both quantitative metrics and qualitative evaluation that is sought from the participants. This is routinely analysed to identify areas of improvement for future editions of the programme.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required Over the years we have encountered several problems, mostly logistical, that have been tackled to manage an event of this scale successfully. 1.Ensuring equity and diversity: Making sure there is a representation of schools across the geography of the city, ensuring that the different schools get a chance each year, different language mediums are represented, almost equal number of boys and girls attend the programme. A good database is needed. 2.Ensuring that the level of explanation in labs and lectures is suitable for the 9/10th standard level. Requires significant mentoring in scientific outreach and public speaking skills etc. 3.Arranging for logistics of 2000+ visitors on a single day. From transport arrangements from local train stations to the adequate availability of rest-rooms or trash cans on campus.

7. Notes (Optional) Our experience has shown that given some effort and mentoring, even the most complex experimental setups can be made accessible to high school students and the ability to engage with real scientists-in-the-making and practicing researchers is an enriching and inspiring experience for most students.

7.3 Institutional Distinctiveness

Provide the details of the performance of the institution in one area distinctive to its vision, priority, and thrust Provide the web link of the institution in not more than 500 words

The Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope is a large facility built and operated by the National Centre of Radio Physics of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. Consisting of 30 antennas, each 45m in diameter it is a world-class observatory and the most sensitive radio telescope in the world at many of its frequencies of operation. Signals from each of the GMRT antennas are transported to a central electronics building via optical fibre where they are combined using sophisticated electronics to allow the entire array to operate as a single telescope and image the sky with the resolution corresponding to that of a 25 km sized mirror. The electronics also allows the signals from the telescopes to be combined to provide a very high time resolution data stream, which is useful to observe short-duration radio bursts from cosmic radio sources, such as pulsars.

The GMRT has just completed a major upgrade that provides broadband, almost seamless frequency coverage from 100 to 1500 MHz with improved sensitivity receivers. Along with this, the maximum instantaneous bandwidth has been increased by more than a factor of 10, from 32 MHz to 400 MHz. This results in both higher fidelity images as well as a significant improvement in sensitivity. Almost all of the components of the telescope have been upgraded to use modern, state of the art technology. This includes new broadband feed antennas, new high dynamic range low noise amplifiers (LNAs), broadband analog optical fibre links, sophisticated signal conditioning units, and a hybrid digital backend. The upgrade to the analog and digital receiver systems was accompanied by other upgrades such as a next-generation monitor & control system, a modern antenna servo system, improvements to the mechanical systems of the antennas, enhancements in data storage and computing resources, along with matching improvements in infrastructure facilities relating to civil and electrical systems. A major technical challenge that was successfully met was to upgrade the entire telescope without significantly disturbing the observations. The GMRT continued to carry out observations throughout the period during which it was being upgraded. The entire design and execution of the upgrade were carried out by staff at NCRA. For some subsystems, such as the telescope control and monitor system, this was done in collaboration with industry partners. The net outcome of the upgrade is what is, in essence, a new telescope, which retains its place as one of the most sensitive interferometers in the world. The upgraded GMRT was officially released to the national and international community in March 2019, although parts of the upgraded system had been deployed in a phased manner prior to that.

New and exciting results from the upgraded GMRT have already started appearing in frontline journals. These include observations of atomic hydrogen gas in galaxies at frequency ranges that were previously inaccessible to the telescope, measurements of the atomic gas content of galaxies at significantly larger distances than earlier possible, studies of relic radio

128

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research AQAR 2018-19

emission in clusters of galaxies, observations of radio emission from magnetic stars, as well as the discovery of a number of new pulsars, including millisecond pulsars.

8 Future Plans of action for the next academic year (500 words)

1. To start a vaccination programme for the students: It was noted that some of the contagious diseases (like chickenpox) can spread in the student hostels very fast. The Medical Officer of TIFR recommended that we should ensure that all the TIFR students come adequately vaccinated, for the safety of them as well as their colleagues. If the students are unable to get the required vaccines before joining the institute, TIFR can facilitate their vaccinations after they join.

2. To organize the event to celebrate the 50th year of Graduate School in TIFR: The physics graduate school of TIFR, with regular coursework required for a Ph.D. degree, started in 1969 and would be completing its Golden Jubilee the next year. This would be a good time to introspect and evaluate the impact of graduate school over the past 50 years. It is planned to organize an event, where TIFR alumni in various fields all over the world will be invited. Panel discussions will be held with eminent people in the field of education, and the direction the TIFR graduate school should take in the future will be discussed.

3. To make all the preparations for the conducting of the JEST exam for the next two consecutive years: NCRA-TIFR was one of the founder institutions that started conducting the Joint Entrance Selection Test (JEST) for admission into physics Ph.D. programmes. This has now grown into a collaboration of more than 30 institutions all over India, who take turns in conducting the examination. TIFR will be conducting this test, on behalf of all the partner institutions, in 2020 and 2021. This will be independent of the TIFR written test and will involve coordination with many institutions across the country.

4. To make the digitization of the University Cell records: TIFR Deemed-to-be University has completed more than 15 years. The paperwork in the University Cell needs to be minimized and the past records need to be recorded in a digital format so that they are available quickly are reliably.
