Summary of the session:
Research cell of IMS Ghaziabad- University Courses Campus organized a peer enrichment session on Data Analysis using Python on 22nd July, 2021 under the efforts of IQAC. The session was taken up by Prof. Rakesh Roshan who provided a very simple and interesting usage of Python for our research work. The session was very interesting as it clarified many aspects of coding that every researcher can take up even without the technical knowledge of coding and algorithams. Prof, Rakesh emphasized the importance of practicing it more through regularly using simple methods of analyzing data through Pandas which are the simple versions of using Python.
He also indicated the importance of building our understanding of Python and R while enhancing the level of research among the faculty members. The session was undertaken in a very interesting manner with the resource person handling many queries of the participants in an interactive manner. with the help of many examples and practical application of how to use libraries, what key words to use in the programming, actual hands on session on solving certain problems, the session ended up with more knowledge about the platform that faculty was encourage to use. He also suggested his availability for further understanding and collaboration for research work in the area of data analysis. Such sessions organized by the research cell provide many opportunities for the faculty to build their own competencies and develop themselves as valuable academicians and researchers.
