Looking back at my time in the Computer Science and Engineering Department at J.N.N Institute of Engineering, one word comes to mind: transformational. It wasn’t just about learning to code — it was about discovering how technology could be used to imagine, build, and solve.

In those four years, I evolved from being someone curious about tech to someone confident enough to architect real-world software systems. From writing my first C program to deploying a cloud-based project, every step at J.N.N felt purposeful.

What made the CSE experience truly impactful was the freedom to experiment — whether it was building a mini search engine, working with IoT devices, or diving into AI model development. The faculty never discouraged questions, even if they went beyond the syllabus. That culture of exploration has stayed with me even in the industry.

Some reflections that have stayed with me:

● Code is a language, but problem-solving is the mindset.
● Soft skills matter just as much as syntax.
● Team projects teach you more than solo assignments ever can.
● Staying updated is not optional — tech evolves every month.
