Research Projects in Indian Psychology
The purpose of this web-page is to facilitate contact
between students and guides with common research interests.
Below is a first sample of what we intend to post on this page.
Info on research that is still to start is especially welcome.
The more students and guides post such information,
the more useful this webpage will become.
Information about Indian Psychology related research projects
in which you have been involved, or which you would like to undertake
may be emailed to mail@ipi.org.in
