A typical day at the NDC is rather difficult to describe.
However, the narration here is to give a broad idea of activities that
go on at the College.
09:00 to 09:50/10:20h
In the mornings, the IAGs get
together in their respective rooms to discuss/take stock of progress
of analysis work that is assigned to various teams of the IAGs. The
IAG Chairpersons and Coordinating Chairpersons also carry out
co-ordination of various activities scheduled for the day. If the
programme has a lecture, it will commence at 1030h and if it is a
panel discussion, it will be at 1000h. The guest speakers arrive by
0945 h/1015 h and are received by the Commandant and the SDS, who
discuss together the main issues likely to come up during the
presentation/lecture. The Course Members in the meantime have a cup
of tea and gather in the Lecture Hall.
Lecture/Panel Discussion
This commences at
scheduled time with an introduction by the SDS In-charge. There is a
coffee break at around 1130 h for 30 minutes. Then follows the
Question and Answer session, wherein the Course Members ask their
questions. The talk/panel discussion is concluded with the remarks of
the Commandant.
The question answer session continues till around 1300h.
The Course Members, Faculty and Staff along with the guest speakers
all proceed to have working lunch in the College Mess at 1300h. The
discussions continue even during lunch.
