Alumni meet on 23 rd June at CVPR (at the convention center)

We were able to host this year’s Alumni meet for IIT/CVIT students at the CVPR conference held in New Orleans, Louisana. Vision Diaspora is the name for this informal luncheon meeting of approximately 40 people. Siddhant Bansal organized this meeting by sending out an e-invite to all attending the CVPR conference.

“ A wonderful experience for me, catching up with my seniors and sharing their experiences. I felt proud to be part of an institution that has produced such amazing people who are working on leading technologies at some of the best places in the world. It was also eye-opening for me in deciding steps for my future decision in choosing higher studies.” Says Siddhant, MS Research, Department of Computer Science, IIIT-Hyderabad.

They got into a discussion on a wide range of topics from their earlier experiences at IIIT, the subjects they choose, and finally the projects they worked on. It was exciting to hear about the hostel life during their study days and life outside campus. From their experiences, they shared what made them decide between going for a job or for further studies doing Ph.D. in their respective countries. Also shared the negative and positive aspects of the job, manager, and daily routines.
