 Before joining TSE, I did my bachelor's in mathematics followed by a master's in operations research from University of Delhi in India. I really like to work in research. I'm currently looking for PhD positions in the field of sustainable development or economic development. I am from India and with the current currency exchange rate it becomes very difficult as an Indian to study in Europe so this scholarship will help me focus on my academics without worrying about any financial stress. I think it's a great opportunity to promote women in this field especially I remember I was the only girl in my class last year in the master one and I did not have anybody to look up to or all my professors were men and so through this initiative I was able to find other students other women like me in this field.
