My academic model is the following: given the lack of a universally accessible Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Engineering for everyone at IIT Madras, I chose this path: to pursue the BS in Data Science and Applications at IIT Madras while strengthening it in parallel through studies in Computer Science and Engineering by way of NPTEL/SWAYAM and textbooks.

In institutional terms, my program is the IIT Madras BS Degree in Data Science and Applications. In formative terms, however, I understand my education as Computer Science and Engineering at IIT Madras, with Data Science and Applications functioning as its applied, quantitative, and computational form.

My current focus is concentrated on expanding my research in the ARC Prize competition, producing technical writing for Substack and for this blog, and developing an open source agentic AI project for industry built with LangGraph and AgentScope. These are milestones I aim to reach by mid-2027.
