Spending time with friends

In what way do you find that your diploma from TP helps you in your further studies?

The Diploma in Electronics has endowed me with a wide range of knowledge and skills. Its broad-based and flexible platform has not only taught me to work independently, but also provided opportunities for group work through the multiple PBL projects.

What is the best thing that you remember about TP?

I enjoyed most while organising the various events such as the Japanese Student Exchange Programme and the T.P. Amazing Race for my Diploma Club E2-Matrix. Event planning proved to be as challenging as studying. Both required logical thinking as well as a meticulous approach. At times the planning process did not go smoothly. Fortunately, our club advisors were always there to steer us onto the right track.

Any special incident or anecdote that you especially remember?

Graduation day. It was the highlight of my 3-yr stay in TP. I thoroughly enjoyed that evening with my friends, family and staff of TP.
