Designed to strengthen women from the second and three institutions, the program offers structured mentoring, financial assistance and practical research exposure with practical experience in real laboratory environments.

This year, 40 female students are participating in the program after a meticulous evaluation process that takes into account academic merit, research or economic history, focusing on supporting those of families with low-income or financial inadequate services. Learning journeys will result in leading government research institutions such as pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in India and project-based internships as well as project-based internships, such as Science and Industrial Research Council-Hurricane and Molecular Biology Center (CSIR-CCMB). These internships have been placed in a wider development designed to develop research skills, expand professional networks and inspire long -term careers in STEM, including technical seminars and industrial exposure visits.
Despite the increasing awareness of STEM careers, many women from small cities in India still face significant difficulties that limit their progress in these areas. Inadequate exposure to scientific opportunities, financial restrictions and mentor shortage of restrictions often prevent them from fully participating in the professional science community. The Syngnene-Rich program provides scholarships, personalized mentoring and practical research experience and deals with the division between academic knowledge and real world career expectations.
