"I did M. Sc. and Ph.D. in the University and now moved to NUS. A world class education and experience that I have gained in the University is such a valuable wealth to my life. Computational & Wetlab facility for Biological research was quite awesome. Life in the University campus for a student is like living in a real heaven.

Ph. D

"I am from the North-Eastern part of India (Assam). The friendly behavior of hostel staff of girls' hostel was a comfortable start. Changing my field of study from Biotechnology to Bioinformatics was a big step but the course structure of the program made it a lot easier to adapt to. With both experimental and computational facilities in Centre for Bioinformatics, Pondicherry University, it provides a promising opportunity for study and research"
