Testimonials
Karunya gave me a strong foundation in chemistry through qualified faculty, excellent laboratory facilities, and a research-focused learning environment. What stood out was the opportunity to experience research even at the master's level. This exposure helped me pursue my Ph.D. at CSIR Central Electrochemical Research Institute (CECRI), followed by postdoctoral research at Chonbuk National University, Republic of Korea. I currently work as a faculty member at Keimyung University, Republic of Korea, where I continue my research and teaching in electrochemistry. The academic and research experience I gained at Karunya played an important role in my career.
My postgraduate studies in Physics at Karunya prepared me to take the next step in my research career. The supportive faculty, well-equipped laboratories, and freedom to explore my areas of interest gave me valuable academic and research experience. I also appreciated the diverse campus environment and the balance between academics and student life. My time at Karunya gave me the foundation to pursue Ph.D. research at National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan.
My M.Sc. in Nanoscience and Technology at Karunya gave me valuable exposure to advanced laboratory equipment and research practices. The guidance of experienced faculty helped me develop practical research skills and prepared me for further opportunities. During my studies, I was selected as a Project Intern at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, and the National Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, University of Mumbai. I am grateful for the research experience and academic support I received at Karunya.
