In 2017, she was awarded the SLAB scholarship to pursue her study in PhD level in the field of health sciences generally, and sound-cognitive training intervention for children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorders (ADHD) symptoms specifically. Her PhD project also managed to secure the grant from the Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS). In November 2020, Masnira has completed her PhD level with excellent remarks from all the examiners. Presently, Masnira is an assistant professor in speech-language pathology at the same department.
