Dr.Jayagoda was my supervisor for MBA dissertation. He guided me to conduct research in a professional manner and also trained to follow best practices in research. He follows simplistic and effective ways to guide his students. He is always reachable at the same time friendly to resolve the issues. He is a great lecturer and supervisor who is actively involved in creating a knowledgeable society.

It was a great privilege to be under the supervision of Dr. Dimithri during my MBA journey. The clarity in his explanations and immense knowledge imparted in me have helped enormously to grasp the concepts effectively. Furthermore, his constant, constructive feedback has enabled me in producing a successful dissertation with flying colors. His words of wisdom, constant guidance, and encouragement groomed me into an inquisitive thinker. Studying under Dr.Dimthri was an interesting and memorable experience. Precisely, Dr.Dimthri is everything one could look for in a good mentor, teacher, and humble person.
