SSN celebrates 19th Graduation Day

Congratulating the students, Professor P. Balaram, Former Director of IISc Bangalore said, “The relationship between each students and their institution is a deeply personal one and I would encourage you to think about giving back to the institution that has educated you in your formative years.”

Talking about the significance of research, Balaram further added, “There is a great need for young people to understand multiple phenomenon, to experiment and do research. There is no greater case for research than the fact that it helps one to find answers to questions and in the process of finding those answers, occasionally make great discoveries. You are lucky to be young and have long careers stretching before you. Make the best use of the time you have before you.”
