Problem Statement
Despite the Government's stress for R&D across various sectors within India, we felt the researchers lacked a uniform platform to enlighten themselves to interact with their fellow researchers and to look for grants issued by Goverment and Universities
- We realized the future of engineering lies in interdiscplinary pursuits: Knowledge in mutliple fields is essential. There is no central repository of research papers written by NIT scholars which we felt was a requirement in this age.
- Researchers when in need of a fellow researchers with a particular skillset have to resort to word of mouth. This restricts the pool of talent that can be accessed.
- Researchers have to rely on word of mouth and suggestions to find out about applicable grants, which is often too late.
- There is no central source of events and workshops of interest for NITs.
Our Solution
The idea behind ScholarHub is to promote research culture within NIT's by making information about funding, human resource development and provision of neccesary facilities at one central place.
- This eliminates the need to go through another NIT's research portal to find research papers.
- We provide a list of fellow researchers who are in need of collaborators. We provide enough personal information and a way of communication to identify right partners.
- We aggregrate information about upcoming events of interest across all NITs, enabling interested scholars to pursue more workshops.
- We provide a list of upcoming grants and their essential information that institutions and governments offer.
