They said PhD study is meant to explore into unexplored realms of knowledge. Less known but more important is that the journey establishes lifelong scientific mind to tackle a much broader range of challenges.

The learning atmosphere here is excellent. I had strong supports from friendly colleagues, supervisors, and staff members towards the completion of my degree. The lectureship is a great opportunity for me to continue the momentum of my research, and at the same time, to pass on positive experiences and supports to my students.
