The
Berhampur University is all set sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with
National Institute of Rural Development (NIRD), one of the premier national
level institutes for development, research and transfer of technology soon.
The
MoU would be signed between the university and the NIRD at a brief function to
be held on August 17, for which NIRD Director General Dr MV Rao has been
invited.
With
this MoU knowledge in research, training and sharing of technical knowhow in
the five principal domains, namely, livelihood, fisheries, innovative
education, women empowerment and tribal development can be exchanged, said,
Prof. Behera, BU vice-chancellor.
After
the signing of the MoU, the university is contemplating to hold an awareness
programme in the evening through SIG groups for deliberation and exchange of
ideas between faculty members and researchers working in the above five
principal domains in order to associate the various postgraduate departments
and explore technical expertise of the NIRD for development and empowerment of
the rural areas in this region, Prof Behera added.
According
to sources, the Vice-Chancellor is contemplating to urge the NIRD Director to
take over the management of the famous deer park located in the university campus
as the university has no fund for its maintenance. The university is currently
spending Rs. 5 lakh per year towards maintenance of the deer park. Source: Odishatoday
