  Research Associate

  I had the wonderful opportunity to work on an Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR) Major Research Project about educational partnerships in India from July 2019 to May 2020 at Lady Shri Ram College for Women, New Delhi. During my term, I performed all the duties that normally entail the post of a Research Associate. I prepared outlines and drafted write-ups for the project report. I planned, organised and conducted field surveys in multiple schools to gather primary data. In order to do that I designed various research instruments for data collection, such as questionnaires and interview scripts. In addition to that I synthesised and analysed literature and examined and evaluated primary and secondary sources by employing various research methods and approaches. My strong research and writing skills eventually helped me to prepare a 50000+ words project report within less than the stipulated time. Apart from that I learnt to manage working relations with other employees and in the process developed strong interpersonal communication skills. I also learnt to prepare clear and concise outlines and write crisp and compelling drafts for the project. All in all, I think of my term as a Research Associate as an immensely educational and a highly transformative experience. Show less
