Achiever speaks: Ms Satyam Sadekar

Ms Satyam Sadekar, B.Sc Geology Topper at Goa University


First time when I came to the department and saw the list of the geology toppers I visualised my
name appearing in the list for 2016-17 batch. I had been constantly trying to reach my goal
which I set on that day and by the grace of God I could do it. And obviously I am very happy
about it!

From day one I planned each day such that enough time was given for study .I managed my studies with all other activities .As I loved this subject which is very interesting I always paid attention in class. The most important part is that I have always been very attentive in the lectures and made sure
that I didn't miss a single lecture.

As of now I'm only concentrating on my master's and I would like to get a doctorate in this
subject . My goal is to achieve the maximum knowledge in this subject.

Chowgules has been a blessing to me not only in the field of geology but also for my overall
development. This college has given me a chance to sharpen my skills in my field of choice.
There have been, many opportunities to learn more, honours programme was the best part of it .
Some interesting courses were part of the honours programme like Gem Testing, Mapping and
Surveying ,Groundwater Hydrology ,Marine Geology , Banking and Finance. The faculty in the
department are very motivating, helpful and they were the best mentors one could ever get and I
consider myself very fortunate in this aspect .The Writing Centre at college has taught me many
writing tips and rules that I was unaware even existed, and would still be unaware if had it not
been a part of my experience because of this, I realised that I still had a lot to learn despite what I
knew. All these aspects of college have also made me better as a person and enriched my
personality for which I will always be thankful to this college.
