I have undergone bachelor's in civil engineering at Manipal University India. Having ranked 5th out of 180 students in my batch, I managed to secure a CGPA of 8.9/10 overall. I had secured an internship in my third year at a structural engineering firm in Tanzania and my final year project was based on a comparison between British standard and Indian standard with an example showing the variations of quantities. I also prepared an excel code to design various RC structural member.
