Feedback from Scholars

What I appreciated most:
After the session, I feel great to participate these excellent lectures and have a fantastic teamwork with my teammates. These great lectures associated with organic solar cell in the different fields broadens my vision. To come out a great proposal with my excellent teammates in a very short time, it became a unforgettable event to me. Finally, our hard work paid off to recieve the funding and is going to make our proposal come true. Hopefuly, we can finish our project together in the near future.

Feedback from Fellows

What I appreciated most:
" This global school is an excellent program to encourage students and grow leaders. Previously my institute focused only on growing engineers. But nowadays, student ability is increasing, and we want to grow researchers and leaders. GSAS is a very attractive program."
