Welcome Package for Adjunct Faculty

On behalf of the President, our faculty, and our staff members, welcome you to the Institute of Advanced Sciences (INADS).  

You join a group of outstanding faculty members who possess an undeniable sense of dedication to their respective fields.  Thank you for your commitment, support, and dedication to the Institute.  INADS is more than just an institution of higher learning. It’s a place where we are striving to integrate fundamental with applied sciences to create a better understanding of matter, mind, natural phenomena, and universal principles of life. The institute’s main objective is to create international harmony through learning and promote holistic sciences for creating fundamental knowledge of truth.

INADS was founded in 2013 by the personal efforts of Dr. Bal Ram Singh, with the goal to promote education in a true sense. Education does not mean only literacy, it is the premise of progress for self along with the whole society. Its main purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one. INADS philosophy comprises of these principles. To put forward its educational philosophy, INADS currently has two academic entities; a) Botulinum Research Center, and b) School of Indic Studies. The Botulinum Research Center (BRC) is a major academic and research unit of INADS. Although, BRC mainly promotes research to create an understanding of botulinum neurotoxins, it is also expanding its horizon to other biomolecules for holistic understanding. The Center organizes symposia and workshops, offers internship, and is engaged in various research collaborations. The School of Indic Studies (SIS), on the other hand, offers interdisciplinary scholarly program that offers courses, seminars, internships, conferences, and theoretical/experimental research opportunities concerning philosophy, tradition, values, art, science, culture, and religions.

You, as an adjunct faculty, will be representative of the institute and contribute to the institute’s progress and mission. We expect to learn new concepts, ideas, plans, and practices from our adjunct faculty members and hope to present them through academic, intellectual, and scholarly avenues which will advance the outreach of the institute. The INADS values and recognize the expertise, experience, and perspectives that adjunct faculty proffer and looks forward to working with you. We also request you to identify and promote INADS in your scholarly publications and presentations.

In addition to this short letter and demographic form, we will send you the Adjunct Faculty Handbook. You should find all the institutional policy in the handbook.
