SBS BSc student secures first position at Genesis Scientific Model United Nations

We are delighted to share that Ms. Niharika Sankranti, a second-year BSc Biotechnology student at the School of Biosciences (SBS), has secured first position among the International Press Corps (IPC) delegates at Genesis, the Scientific Model United Nations (MUN), organised by Dayananda Sagar University on 30 September 2026.

Representing the International Press Corps, Niharika demonstrated the ability to engage with scientific issues beyond the laboratory, bringing together scientific understanding, communication, critical thinking and situational awareness. Her achievement highlights the importance of equipping students not only with knowledge of science, but also with the confidence and skills to communicate and apply that knowledge in dynamic, real-world contexts. Niharika’s achievement reflects the holistic approach to learning and an encouraging example of how biotechnology students can engage meaningfully with diverse platforms beyond the conventional classroom and laboratory.

Congratulations to Niharika on this well-deserved achievement!
