I am Sourav Ghosh, currently pursuing M. Tech in Computer Science at IIT Kharagpur. I am a former employee of TATA Consultancy Services, and a former Microsoft Student Partner. I graduated with B. Tech degree in Information Technology at Techno India, Kolkata. I did my schooling from Indira Gandhi Memorial High School till 10th standard and the next 2 years I studied at Bhavan’s Gangabux Kanoria Vidyamandir. My parents and teachers have always encouraged adherence to discipline and perfection, which are of, no doubt, great importance in today’s competitive world. While most individuals tend to strive towards achieving perfect duplication, my focus remains on innovation, details, and original thinking. A broadened approach should be taken not only to solve problems in our professions but also in our personal lives. This has always been appreciated at Techno India, where I’m studying now. I have been selected as Microsoft Student Partner and apart from giving recognition to my passion for technology, this has helped me a lot to enhance my technical and social skills by giving me the opportunity to meet other people like me who takes much enthusiasm in delving into new technologies. Apart from this, I am a founder of the technical club of IT department at my college, InspirIT. As an active member, I organize sessions for other students regarding technologies which mostly are not covered in university curriculum, but are nonetheless quite important in today’s market. Along with the other founders of the club, I designed and developed the website for the same, and regularly contribute to it. I like to learn by exploring and take an active interest in modifying configurations of different software in order to get a better understanding about their working procedure. I enjoy going through tech blogs and sharing knowledge via social media. Apart from these, I am certified as a Microsoft Certified Professional, presented a paper on “A Social Networking Model for Learning through Web Net†in AICTE sponsored National Conference on “Paradigm Shift in Education Technology and Content Managementâ€- e-tcm 2012 (ISBN: 978-81-923034-7-5), ranked 3rd in West Bengal in MBD talent Search Examination 2004-2005. I have also been School Topper in AISCE (CBSE - Class X) examination and have bagged prizes at various competitions. I have experience in developing for various platforms, and my Windows 8 apps are available for download from the Windows Store. I have sound knowledge about J2EE development, and my prime interest is in Operating System and DBMS. During college, I have been a Class Representative. Hopefully, this will add on to my experience in team management, as done by my status as Prefect and House Captain at school. My areas of interest include cryptography, network security, AI, data management, and process optimization. I look forward to connect with people and share memorable experiences with them.
