When I came to LUMS in 2019 for an MOU signing, I visited SOE. Although I wanted to work for another year, the sense of a strong community and the top-notch faculty enticed me to apply. One semester down the lane, the journey has been nothing short of a moral epiphany.

I am currently a PhD student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst in Math, Science and Learning Technologies. The opportunities that SOE provided helped me develop research skills and lay the foundation for my contributions to academia.
