My time at IIIT Dharwad was both challenging and rewarding, providing a strong foundation in computer science that has greatly benefited my career. A memorable highlight was working on the Writing in Air project under Mr. Arun Chauhan, with invaluable support from professors like Mr. Rajendra Hegadi, Mr. Jagadish, and Mr. Lakshman Mahto. After graduating, I worked as a Systems Engineer at TCS before transitioning to pursue an MBA, securing offers from top IIMs and joining IIM Lucknow in 2023. I am deeply grateful to IIIT Dharwad for its quality education and supportive community.
- Worked with TCS for 1.5 years as Systems Engineer in their Digital Profile. - Successfully converting 10+ top IIM's notably IIM Calcutta and IIM Lucknow. - Joining IIM Lucknow in their flagship 2-year PGP program. - Interning at GAIL India Limited as Strategy and Marketing Intern.
I had many memorable experiences during my time at IIIT Dharwad such as being the student representative and discussing student issues with concerned authorities and the lengthy meetings that took place for discussing them. Also, the last minute quick grabbing of breakfast just before classes, late night roaming in the Hubli city, enjoying festive celebrations with faculties and their families, walk around IT park college campus and many more that will be forever engraved in my heart.
Dear Juniors, college is a journey where every challenge is a chance to grow. Engineering can be demanding but rewarding, so don’t hesitate to step out of your comfort zone—take on tough projects, join clubs, and seize new opportunities to build resilience and discover your strengths. Use the resources around you—professors, classmates, and the community—and don’t hesitate to seek help. Every step, however small, brings you closer to your goals. Stay curious, believe in yourself, and trust that your hard work will pay off. Reach out to alums, seniors, or me whenever you need support—you’ve got this!
