B.E. in Information Technology, Aug 2015 - Jul 2019

Panjab University was not just an Educational Institute but also a place which was driven by culture, the rich culture of the two states the UT shares boundary with and of India, on a whole. My four years of Bachelors not only made me into a proficient Software Engineer, but also helped me view the world with a different perspective. I made friends from different departments of studies, all unified by a common dream of achieving their goals in life.

UIET offered me plethora of opportunities in all fields from core development and coding to soft-skills, that by the end of my freshman year I knew my interest and the path I needed to follow. Thanks to the extremely supportive faculty who mentored me and helped me to move on the path of my interest. I made an amazing team and learned how being a Team Player and a Team Motivator was an important part of the Software Development process. My participation in many hackathons gave me an exposure regarding where I stood in the world and slowly increased my knowledge of trending technologies and tools. It helped me to discover my love for building software and tools that can be used for the benefit of the society and motivated me to ceaselessly work towards this goal while developing forebearance towards adversity. While preparing for my GATE exam in final year I realised how much I enjoy learning the concepts behind the Computer Systems. Academically I was in the top 10% students in my entire branch of Information Technology(Batch-2019).
