What are the key reasons which inspired you to join the dynamic world of education?
Teaching young and ambitious minds and research have been my passion since the start. That's why I have been associated with the education sector right after finishing my PhD. Also, as an educator, I am not only responsible for teaching students but also for upgrading my own skills by learning current trends, technologies and of course teaching methodologies, keeping in mind the constantly evolving nature of the educational world.
Apart from this I always had the desire to make a difference and bring a positive change in society, and education without doubt works as a Catalyst here. And believe me, the happiness, motivation and satisfaction which comes after getting the opportunity to shape the minds of future generations and contribute to their personal and professional growth is worth it. Hence I strongly believe these are some of the driving forces which have led me to the world of education for so long and at HITS also.
How has your engagement in events like workshops and seminars contributed to your professional growth?
According to me, professional growth is the timely and right application of past and present experiences and skills to positively impact our current position and career pursuits. Because, by expanding our skills and thinking ahead, we are preparing ourselves to handle more responsibilities. Also, investing in your professional growth shows ambition, self-awareness, humility and tenacity and gaining new skill sets and qualifications by attending professional training courses.
Therefore I would say my past exposure, be it while attending workshops and seminars or organizing the ones, has helped me a lot to reach where I am today.
How do you keep yourself and your faculty updated with the current trends and developments of the CSE field?
For the purpose of keeping ourselves up-to-date with the happenings of the CSE world, we regularly attend various kinds of seminars and faculty development programs. Apart from this, we also participate in industrial conferences, attend technical workshops and other kinds of events from time to time. And this is because we can upskill our own knowledge and deliver best to students for their bright future.
In your opinion, what are the biggest challenges and benefits of the CSE field and what advice would you give to aspirants as a HOD?
In today's world, the field of Computer Science and Engineering is a booming sector not only in India but in most parts of the world. And emerging technologies are bringing a lot of changes and shifts in the operating model of various industries and organizations across the globe. And the sector is not only famous for its technologies but also for diverse categories of jobs, but yes like every other domain, this field also has several challenges.
And being the Head of CSE Department, I would suggest to students that if you are planning to become a good Programmer in the coming future, keep sharpening your coding as well as programming skills daily. Because if you practice daily, then day by day your coding skills will improve and it helps to increase your analytical and logical skills.

Our college has maintained very strong relationships with leading industries and organizations and as a result, we offer our students some amazing internships to bridge the gaps between what skills they have and what corporate demands. And during these apprenticeships, students are sent to work in a company after completing 3rd year to gain practical knowledge and experience in a real time environment.
