Six students from Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, Kashmir (SKUAST-K) have secured fully funded research internships under the Taiwan Experience Education Program. The students cleared multiple rounds of screening and international interviews, the university said.
The four undergraduate and two postgraduate students will work at three Taiwanese universities: National Changhua University of Education, National Pingtung University of Science and Technology, and National Dong Hwa University. The selected students include Dhirender, Navneet Singh, Nitish Kumar, Kartik Duneria, Fatima Jaan, and Sabyasachi Mukherjee.
SKUAST-K naturally celebrates the six students as proof of its global standing. Fair enough. But the narrative risks over-claiming: a single competitive intake shows promise, not a transformed university. The real test will come when these students return and apply their learning to local agriculture or when more such slots open next year. How many SKUAST-K applicants made the cut in 2023? That number would tell us if this is a trend or an exception.
