My initial dream was to secure admission in BITS Goa, which I admired for its coding culture, reputation, and strong curriculum. However, my BITSAT score fell short of securing CSE, and I had to rethink my path. That is when I chose VIT Chennai, which offered me the branch I have always wanted — Computer Science and Engineering. Looking back, I do not regret this decision at all. VIT has provided me with an environment full of opportunities to showcase my abilities, learn from peers, and participate in diverse activities that go beyond textbooks.

                             STEPPING INTO THE WORLD OF TECHNOLOGY Hello, my name is Sanket Shukla, and I am a first-year student at VIT Chennai, pursuing B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE). My journey in technology has just begun, yet I already find myself deeply curious about coding, quantitative computing, risk analysis, finance, and the business applications of technology. I believe that today’s engineer must not only code but also understand how technology drives industries — a vision that keeps me motivated. Currently, my technical foundation lies in Python, Java, and JavaScript. These languages allow me to approach real-world problems with structured solutions. For me, programming is not just about syntax and logic — it is a toolkit to analyze, innovate, and build scalable systems. Beyond academics, I engage in hobbies that have shaped both my personality and skill set: cricket, chess, badmin...
