From the tranquil town of Purulia to the fore-front of cutting-edge research in Taiwan, Debraj’s story is truly inspiring. This 26-year-old man carved his own path in academia in Taiwan, adeptly navigating the growing opportunities between India and Taiwan.
Attracted by Taiwan’s advanced research capabilities, which he first encountered during an exchange program in 2019, the ambitious scholar from KIIT, Odisha, was drawn to this small island nation.
Taiwan, a hub of innovation, Banerjee found not just an insight into the academic excellence of a developed nation in fields like Semiconductors, but also an opportunity to advance his career without financial burdens weighing on his family. With the support of a full tuition waiver and a stipend, Banerjee dedicated himself to his Master’s and PhD studies at Chang Gung University(CGU) in Reliability Science and Technology , one of the most lucrative engineering disciplines.
His research work earned him the best paper award at the 2023 Taiwan ESD and Reliability Conference at NCTU. He has been acknowledged as a Top 12 contender in the Yula Cup CADMEN in Taiwan and is a recipient of the SIPGA Fellowship at NMC, Singapore.
Banerjee’s story is one of many as a number of students have been steered and supported by Educare Taiwan to achieve their goals.
