July 8, 2025, Career Point University, Kota, is proud to share that Amit Malav, an M.Sc. Horticulture student from the School of Agricultural Sciences has published his research paper in the International Journal of Horticulture and Food Science (IJHFS). Supervised by Dr. Mahaveer Suman, Assistant Professor (Horticulture), Department of Horticulture, School of Agricultural Sciences, his work on sustainable papaya cultivation techniques marks another academic achievement under CPU’s growing portfolio of student research contributions.
The study explored strategies for improving the yield and quality of papaya using modern fertigation techniques under protected cultivation conditions.
While the findings are highly relevant to commercial growers and agri-entrepreneurs, the achievement also underscores CPU’s deep commitment to nurturing scientific thinking and hands-on research at the postgraduate level.
Why Career Point University Stands Out in Agricultural Education
At CPU’s School of Agricultural Sciences (SOAS), students are empowered through:
- Industry-oriented Curriculum – Covering modern horticulture, soil science, crop production, and agri-entrepreneurship.
- Live Research Projects – Conducted at on-campus research farms and protected cultivation units.
- Expert Faculty Mentorship – Students receive close academic supervision from experienced researchers and field experts.
- Strong Research Culture – Encouragement to publish in peer-reviewed national and international journals.
- Skill Development & Career Guidance – Supporting students for competitive exams, academic research, and agribusiness ventures.
Career Point University is not only an academic institution but a platform for transformation, where innovation meets implementation, especially in fields like agriculture that are vital to national growth.
Building the Next Generation of Agricultural Leaders
Research achievements like Amit Malav’s are a testament to the University’s vision of producing well-rounded, future-ready professionals who are equipped to address real-world agricultural challenges. With strong academic support and a practical learning environment, CPU is enabling its students to contribute meaningfully to India’s evolving agri-sector.
