“A real education will not teach you to be the first. It will tell you to enjoy whatsoever you are doing, not for the result but for the act itself.”
-OSHO

This drive to bring excellence in any and every field, made me step in the most noble occupation of the world - “Education”. I have always believed in making an environment for “Stress Free Education” along with “Industrial Skill Oriented Academics” and also trust to be the best for development. Hence, I started my journey in the field of academics with Computer Engineering; the domain in which I have done my Ph.D.

With Silver Oak University I got the opportunity to lead as Dean, Diploma Studies and also as Head, Department of Computer Engineering along with associated emerging technologies; Cyber Security, Cloud Computing and Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence. With research as a passion, I took up an assignment at Carnegie Mellon University, USA on a Machine Learning Tool in 2012. For student development, I founded IEEE Student Branch at Silver Oak University, which is the most vibrant and active branch in the entire region of Asia Pacific.

For technology enthusiasts, I laid the foundation of REDHAT Academy, SOU wherein more than 150 students and more than 50 faculty members have acquired international certifications. A collaborative venture with a renowned industry was established and a program, MEDHA, is designed for Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to leverage the skills of ML enthusiasts.

I have also been strongly opinionated that such industry oriented academic initiatives with an ecosystem which is peaceful and positive can take the level of education to the pinnacle of excellence. With this belief at the core, we established Supercomputing Facility, Apple Lab, AWS and Oracle Academy, Developer Students’ Club, Google CrowdSource, Google Cloud Platform programs and successfully imparted many such international flagship programs, training & events at Silver Oak University.

We at Silver Oak University believe that the right learning environment is one that empowers students by providing clear expectations, opportunities for practice and feedback, opportunities for dialogue, and opportunities for flexibility. Our responsibility is to create and maintain these optimal environments. Our objectives as an institute are to have students understand the fundamental content of the course, develop critical thinking and problem solving skills that they can apply to the content while reflecting on their own learning.

Conducting research is an important part of the learning experience, It offers students many benefits that includes Fostering critical thinking and analytical skills through hands-on learning, Defining academic, career and personal interests, Expanding knowledge and understanding of a chosen field outside of the classroom, Developing one-on-one connections with distinguished faculty in their field.We are highly focused not only on theory concepts rather we also encourage and provide such an environment where we can see acquired knowledge of concepts gets converted into research and start ups. Both are the key elements to meaningful learning and open up new horizons for the students.

We are also very keen in involving and evolving our students such that they become more aware and responsible for their surroundings specially the society and environment. Anything which is carried out by them has a focus on sustainability. When students get involved at an impressionable age, they not only set a transformational foundation for their lives ahead but also create social capital for the country.
