I, as a student in the institution have had a similar experience byparticipating in the international summer school programs. The experience has broadened myhorizons and provided me with a knowledge of different paths I can choose for my career.The interaction with students of different countries fosters a global way of thinking andinstitutions like SCMSN, with an active international cell help the young minds appreciatethe cultural diversity and fuel the belief that meaningful relationships can be formedanywhere in the world. Being backed by ones institution is a crucial point as it helpsovercome the challenges of studying in a foreign country. An inclusive environment of aninstitute creates an atmosphere of belongingness and nurtures diversity.
