Published: 08 December 2023
Ramesh Vetukuri received the Best Supervisor Award 2023 from the Faculty of landscape architecture, horticulture and crop production sciences.

The price was handed out by Mahboobeh Yazdani from the PhD student council and by the Dean of the faculty, Christina Lunner Kolstrup.
– I believe that good supervision is a two-way street where both the supervisor and the student contribute equally to the process. My role is not just to guide but also to listen, learn, and evolve alongside my students, said Ramesh.
Kind, understanding, helpful and encourages critical thinking
In the motivation it ways that Ramesh is kind, understanding, helpful, encourages critical thinking and independent planning, allows room for errors and to grow from those mistakes, motivates students to develop other soft skills besides lab work/research that will help further your career after PhD.
He is a very remarkable mentor and collaborator that dedicate his time and experience to guide and support his working group and beyond students in a welcoming manner.
Powerful inspiration
– This award serves as a powerful inspiration for me. It fuels my commitment to work even harder and smarter, constantly seeking innovative ways to enhance the supervision quality I provide. But more than that, it reinforces my belief in the power of collaborative effort, mutual respect, and continuous learning, said Ramesh.
