According to Associate Professor, LU, Amita Kannaujia, "the training programme primarily for research scholars would be addressed by prominent butterfly expert from the Butterfly Park, Bhimtaal, Peter Smetacek, along with other experts." She said that the field-based training programme was designed to train young researchers with recent techniques and its hands-on experience to carry out effective research on biodiversity, wildlife and conservation biology.

The training course will include topics like ‘Recent Developments in Biodiversity’ and ‘Wildlife Research and Effective Methodology’ to study wildlife and habitats with special reference to GIS mapping.
