Shout out to Mirbalaj Rishi for his exemplary work this summer as an intern. In less than a month, he exceeded our expectations and presented his findings in our interdisciplinary research group to 6 Professors and several students. We are proud of you, Mirbalaj! Snapshot shows part of his presentation on how he utilized an API to pull NCAA basketball statistics.

Here is a #linkedin success story! (I acted as a trump/catalyst and the benefactor being the one who is featured in the post I am sharing here)! (Not sure how she got connected to me – must be after seeing me write something about Purdue University). Akshitha Kartigueyan wrote to me (just a week or two after we were connected here) around 5 pm on November 28, 2023 enquiring of internship opportunities at our org. As her luck would have it, former director of our team/business unit Rob Denz (now he is the Vice President of the Open Innovation Center at Riverside Research) had just hit the road (from our Ohio Office toward Purdue University) to deliver a lecture at @The Center for Education and Research in Information Assurance and Security (CERIAS) at Purdue University. Link for the talk (with video) is at CERIAS : Mind the Gap: Vulnerabilities and Opportunities for Cyber R&D at the Edge - Purdue University https://lnkd.in/gxYRkqrJ I suggested to Akshita that she must attend Dr Denz’s lecture the next day and meet with him after the talk. She did so – even asked a lot of intelligent questions (so I heard) and expressed her desire to work as an intern at our org Riverside Research. As her interests aligned more with #AI/#ml, Dr Denz tied her up with our AI/ML director Bill Casebeer and the rest is history (Akshita must have impressed Bill and co. and was offered an internship to join us in summer 2024). The whole process must have taken just a few weeks! Even though, Akshita and I are colleagues now, we have never met (she is at our Boston office and I am in Ohio). Hopefully, she would join us as a permanent employee some day (after graduating) (like dozens of our interns had sailed that boat). A few points of advice to our followers: do not be shy to reach out to Professionals asking for opportunities. Be a go-getter (here is a young lady who is a good example/role model). #ai #ml #internship #stem #artificialintelligence #machinelearning

Transformative Journeys: Reflections on Workshops & Community Field Work Activities Thrilled to share insights from my social internship journey with Ladli Foundation , where workshops and community field work became transformative chapters. 🌟 Engaging with communities wasn't just a task; it was an immersive experience breaking barriers and fostering connections. Learning extended beyond classrooms, painting strokes of awareness and empowerment in real-world challenges. Navigating hurdles tested our resilience, unveiling the strength within us. Ladli Foundation 's impact echoed in the stories of the individuals we touched. From health awareness to education initiatives, these weren't just checkboxes; they were catalysts for positive change. Victories, big or small, fueled our drive. But beyond tasks, it's the lasting connections and relationships forged that define our journey. Ladli Foundation 's experiences in workshops and community field work activities have been transformative, shaping advocates of positive change. Reflecting on these lessons, we carry forward a commitment to a future where every community thrives.

Internships start this week for many of our 300+ Summer AIP participants. Organizations like Ferox Strategies not only understand the value of #earlycareer talent on their organization but also the importance of #paidinternship opportunities. 70% of TWC's Summer placements provide #financialcompensation to our learners - another important step toward TWC's goal of 100% paid internships. #paidinternships are not just a nice to have, they have real-world impact on an individual's career journey. National Association of Colleges and Employers data show individuals who have paid internships receive, on average, a nearly 50% higher starting salary. The value is even greater for those from historically marginalized communities. Step up and support TWC's mission for access, opportunity and advancement toward a better #firstjob and #careeropportunity. https://lnkd.in/gyZZas9B

Every week new ToucanTech membership communities launch 🚀 around the world! What I particularly 💙 about this one (for the Tanglin Trust School in Singapore) - is the effort they’ve put into their launch “offer”. They’re not just saying ‘hey, we have a new website, come and sign-up’, they’re offering: - career-inspiring video interviews - enticing click-bait (eg fun class photos) - exclusive publications (eg historic docs) - meaningful adventure travel awards - valuable professional development grants - future schedule of interesting events Lots of ‘hooks’ to appeal to different people! Quality content is still king 👑 when building community engagement, and at ToucanTech we make it easy to publish different formats, repurpose, duplicate, track and collate your content in to newsletters and campaigns ⭐️
