Bachelor of Science

(Information Technology)

As a student of Amity University Dubai, I have become stronger, smarter and qualified for the market. In the last three years, I have been selected for several summer internship programmes, was featured in CNN as an official Emirates Nature-WWF ambassador, won Harvard and Samsung Innovation Campus courses, and the list goes on. None of this would be possible if my professors had not shared these amazing opportunities with us and encouraged us to believe in ourselves. In three years, I have become an athlete, digital creator, model, CIS club leader, researcher, public speaker and hackathon expert.
