One of the best decisions in my life!

My days at the National College were unforgettable. I am very much indebted to my College and the Department for where I am now. The BSc Biochemistry and Industrial Microbiology course was well-structured, broad, taught by excellent teachers, and had the best facilities, equivalent to anywhere in the country. It helped me to clear various national entrance exams for MSc, with ease. Moreover, it laid the foundation for the science to which I have decided to devote my time.

Here I developed all my talents and skills to their full extent, particularly my communication skill, through the periodic class – seminars. Surprisingly, this skill helped me immensely, later in life, to attend my Ph.D. interviews with confidence.

Here I made friendships that I keep even today and will cherish all my life.

I have no words to explain the enormous help, support, and encouragement I got from my teachers.

Studying at the National College and the Department of Biochemistry and Industrial Microbiology, was one of the best decisions I took in my life.
