Focus on Research Excellence in Social Sciences

This National Conference in Psychology aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical publication skills.

To accommodate participants from across the country, the organizers have also offered virtual presentation options. This inclusivity ensures that geographical barriers do not limit the exchange of psychological insights.

Expert Sessions and Distinguished Resource Persons

Following the inauguration, the first technical session was led by Dr. Santhosh K.R., an Associate Professor from Christ (Deemed to be University), Bangalore. He shared his expertise on the nuances of research methodology. Consequently, participants gained a clearer understanding of how to structure their findings for high-impact journals.

The conference will continue tomorrow, 30 January 2026, with sessions featuring other esteemed academics:

• Dr. Lijo K.J., Assistant Professor at Rajagiri College of Social Sciences, Cochin.
• Dr. Fathima Bushra Saliha K.P., Assistant Professor at Farook College.

A Vibrant Academic Atmosphere

Starting at 9:30 a.m., the atmosphere in Kaviprathibha Hall is charged with intellectual curiosity. These National Conference in Psychology sessions provide a vital forum for networking and mentorship. Students are actively engaging with the speakers to learn the “art” of converting a raw thesis into a polished publication.

In conclusion, the successful inauguration marks the beginning of a transformative journey for the attendees. St. Thomas College continues to lead in fostering a culture of research and academic integrity through such initiatives.
