This scholarship geared me towards my goal of contributing in the Computer Science field. The environment and support from my supervisors allowed me to publish quality research work in a short time.
With the generosity and support given by the university, I’m able to refine my research skills and learn various technical aspects to pursue a career in academia. I’m proud to be where I am today.
The first step towards my dream of becoming a scientist wouldn’t have been possible without the postgraduate scholarship. Through it, I’m able to immerse myself in all aspects of research.
The PhD programme conducted online due to COVID-19 was organised and well monitored. I appreciate my supervisors for continuously monitoring and guiding my research work despite the restrictions.
