My research programme has been highly satisfying, largely due to the exceptional support from my academic supervisor/advisor and mentor. Despite the programme being online, it operates as a blended approach as it allows face-to-face meetings, emails, and telephone contact with my supervisor, who is very responsive, usually within 24 hours. This professional and research guidance makes me feel connected and motivated to complete my studies, despite the pressure I sometimes feel due to tight time constraints.
Moreover, my advisor/supervisor supports professional development in emergent areas such as Artificial intelligence (AI), highlighting the relevance of my studies. GHU is very supportive, providing access to library and research resources, and I have received a partial scholarship that has significantly helped me.Communication with the administrators and dean is open, making it feel less like a typical online programme.
GHU commitment to technology-enhanced learning is evident through its Learning Management System (LMS), which facilitates seamless interaction and continous assessment. The user-friendly platform ensures easy access to course materials, assignments, and feedback.
Overall, I genuinely feel that my supervisor/advisor, other faculty, and administrators are invested in my academic and personal success.
