This is the success story of our alumni, Shubhi. She has completed her M.Sc in Biotechnology from the Central University of Rajasthan. After completing the program, she got placed at Annov IP.

She cleared her NET examination with a band score of 146 and also worked with a company in a quality control department.

Also, She also worked with a pharmaceutical company in Jaipur, and from there she got knowledge of the Patent Agent Examination.
