The program has exceeded my expectations, aligning my knowledge and significantly enhancing my research capabilities from start to finish. It has been a worthwhile investment in my academic and research journey.
I gained so much. The sessions, every one of them has equipped me with the knowledge I never knew were essential to research. I'm 10x better than I've ever been in conducting research.
I gained a lot starting with research skills, importance of research, the nitty-gritty of research, how to coordinate myself during low moments during research. I am more confident about research.
I know what the journey to beginning and ending a research project entails. I learnt about the connection between research and sustainable development and how various disciplines contribute to addressing global challenges.
I wonder how my research capacity would have been without attending this program. It was a total turnaround experience for me. I got introduced to new tools that I ordinarily wouldn't have known. I sound like a genius before my peers when we discuss research, all thanks to Lune.
