Tulishree Pradhan
Associate Professor-I
Dr. Tulishree Pradhan, an academic luminary with a rich tapestry of the educational odyssey, has traversed the educational landscapes of rural hamlets, bustling semi-urban realms, and the vibrant urban metropolises of India. This kaleidoscopic journey imbued her with a profound understanding of societal intricacies, fostering an empathetic heart that beats in resonance with the myriad joys and sorrows of humanity. Embarking on her scholarly pilgrimage, Dr. Pradhan embarked on a quest for knowledge, culminating in a PhD crowned with laurels in Media and Law from the esteemed halls of KIIT Deemed University. Before this zenith, she honed her legal acumen at Utkal University, Bhubaneswar, where the seeds of her passion for justice and liberty were sown. Her academic sojourn continued with post-graduate studies in the nuanced realms of Constitution & Administrative Law at Symbiosis International University, Pune, illuminating her path with the radiance of legal scholarship. Despite her scientific dalliance in high school, where the mysteries of Physics, Chemistry, Maths, and Biology beckoned, Dr. Pradhan's indomitable spirit led her to embrace the profound complexities of law. Commencing her academic voyage in 2014 at KIIT School of Law, she embarked on a relentless pursuit of excellence, kindling her intellectual flame through tireless research, scholarly discourse, and active participation in national and international symposiums.
Her scholarly prowess transcended borders, as evidenced by her captivating presentations at prestigious venues like the University of Warsaw in Poland, NOVA University of Business & Economics in Portugal, and the venerable University of Coimbra, Portugal. These global platforms became her crucibles of wisdom, forging her into a beacon of legal erudition and societal stewardship. Acknowledged for her altruistic endeavours, Dr. Pradhan was bestowed the Bharat Vikas Award, a testament to her unwavering commitment to societal betterment. Her scholarly pursuits found resonance in the realms of water laws and criminal justice administration, with ICSSR bestowing her with grants to illuminate these crucial domains.
She orchestrates academic symphonies as the Faculty IN Charge of the Centre for Studies and Research in Legislative Drafting and the Tribal Affairs Research and Advocacy Centre at KIIT School of Law. Beyond academia, her altruistic spirit finds expression as a legal consultant for esteemed NGOs like the Save Elephant Foundation Trust and Justice & Liberty Foundation, embodying her ethos of justice, compassion, and environmental stewardship. In moments of reprieve, Dr. Pradhan finds solace in the embrace of literature, the cinematic canvas, meditative reflections, and the sublime serenity of nature, all while effortlessly navigating the linguistic tapestries of English, Hindi, Odia, and Sanskrit.
