INTRODUCTION TO Prof C N R RAO LECTURES SERIES

Prof C N R Rao Lecture Series has been made possible by a generous donation from Prof C N R Rao, Linus Pauling Research Professor, JNC, Bangalore, and presently Chairman, Board of Governors, IIT Kanpur with an objective to honor one faculty member of IITK, each year to deliver a lecture to the Institute academic community, so that they can share the excitement of research with others. It is hoped that this exposure will enthuse others to excel in their research endeavors. The lecture will not be highly specialized so as to create an interest from other departments. The interest arising out of the endowment will be utilized to give a token honorarium to the speaker.
