VGST sponsored FDP

I had the opportunity to participate in the VGST Faculty Development Program (FDP) on “Accelerating Deep Learning Algorithms using FPGA for Medical Image Processing” organized at SDMCET from 6th to 10th May 2026. As a faculty member of the institution, I was also privileged to serve as a Committee Member for the program, contributing to its successful coordination and execution.

As part of the FDP activities, we visited IIT Dharwad on 08/05/2026 for an insightful academic and technical interaction. We extend our sincere gratitude to Dr. Nagaveni Madam, Mr. Malathesh L (Program Head), and the entire team for their valuable support, warm hospitality, and coordination during our visit.
