ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION:
KIIT started as a modest vocational education institute in 1992 in rented premises in Bhubaneswar. By 1997 (considered as the base year) it commenced graduate programmes in Engineering and postgraduate programmes in Computer Applications and Management. The excellent academic ambience, quality faculty, adherence to strict academic rigor and plethora of other academic activities led to grant of university status to the institute by Ministry of HRD, Govt. of India in the year 2004 just within six years (1997-2004) of its inception.
KIIT, now, is a multi-disciplinary University respected worldwide due to its rich educational culture of excellence.

Its cosmopolitan campus is proud to have more than 25,000 students from all corners of India and around 22 countries, creating a mini metropolis in which a diverse multi- cultural community mingles and meets to study and relax together. Student community of the University is highly disciplined due to its student friendly policies.

There are 28 constituent schools, contiguously located in impeccably landscaped and modern-technology- enabled campuses offering graduate, post-graduate, doctoral and post-doctoral programmes in a wide range of disciplines.

ABOUT THE WEBINAR:
In linguistics, the term "view of the world" frequently refers to how language both reflects and moulds our comprehension and perspective of the outside world. Our speech has an impact on how we think and see the world. According to this viewpoint, language serves as both a tool for communication and a cognitive framework for organizing and interpreting our experiences. Different languages have different encoding schemes for information, which causes speakers of those languages to see the world differently and concentrate on different facets of reality. Languages differ, for instance, in their representations of ideas like time, space, colour, and interpersonal connections.
