Speakers
Prof. G. S. Mani
IEEE North Jersey and Pune Section - Inter Section activities: Electronic Warfare-the story from Rhine to Ukraine
Biography:
Prof. Dr. G. S. Mani is a Former chair at IEEE, Pune section, and Former Dean and Director at DIAT, DRDO, Pune. He is currently Chair of IEEE Pune JCAME (joint Chapter AP/MTT/EMC). He quotes that if you have discipline, it provides you with tolerance, which is important. He further adds that when a student is given an idea about fine arts, he also gets an idea about tolerance, which is important for facing life problems. He states that when art interacts with stems, it produces the biggest byproduct. That is why there is a need for the stem to become steam in our education system.
