In loving memory of Dr. Priya Ranjan: A mentor who treated me like family

BENGALURU: Epsilon India partnered with RV College of Engineering (RVCE) to help future engineers gain real-world skills through its Industry–Academia initiative. Final-year students worked with Epsilon mentors on live business challenges, applying classroom concepts to hands-on problem solving.

Two student teams, supported by Epsilon’s product and data specialists and RVCE faculty, developed solutions in emerging areas such as AI-driven email marketing and modernizing high-level language (HLL) code from C to Python 3. Over a two- to three-month sprint, they designed, tested, and presented prototypes at Epsilon’s office, earning project completion certificates.

This collaboration gave students practical exposure to industry use cases and strengthened their technical and professional competencies, preparing them for the future workforce.

Through such partnerships with academia, Epsilon continues to create learning pathways that help young engineers sharpen their skills and transition confidently from campus to career. 

We would be delighted if you could consider featuring this initiative or exploring it further as part of your coverage on tech talent development, industry–academia collaboration, or emerging engineering skills.

A Profound Loss: JK Monitor Mourns the Passing of Founding Chairman Dr. Priya Ranjan

We at JK Monitor are profoundly saddened by the sudden demise of our Founding Chairman, Dr. Priya Ranjan.IN LOVING MEMORY Dr Priya Ranjan

A brilliant mind who studied at Netarhat Residential School and graduated in Electrical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur before earning his PhD from the University of Maryland, Dr. Ranjan chose to return to India and dedicate his life to teaching, research and social good.

His pioneering work in networked systems, AI, robotics and biomedical applications—especially computer-vision tools for early detection of cancer and heart disease—reflected his deep belief that advanced technology must serve humanity.

For more than 15 years at JK Monitor, he remained a loyal friend, mentor and collaborator, marked by rare humility, intellectual integrity and quiet generosity. His passing leaves a void that cannot be filled. Priya, you will be deeply missed. Your life continues to remind us that knowledge finds its highest purpose in the service of others.
