Today when I am asked everyday why I am not intimated by challenges and how do I keep my positivity in every situation, I only smile at the questions and say that I owe it all to my alma mater - LNMIIT. I can't elaborate enough on how the right balance of rigorous courses and extra curricular activities at LNMIIT helped me become an all rounder. The Kazakhstan internship is something I can't not mention! It is one indelible experience that I will probably cherish whole of my life. My days at LNMIIT were the best days of my life, no grandiloquence here! Even the recollection of LNMIIT memories will continue to make me smile forever.
I took admission at LNMIIT in 2013 as an aspiring engineer and after 4 years I left LNMIIT as a startup founder. Fun Fact: When I have joined LNMIIT, I didn't even know the meaning of entrepreneurship! I would like to quote this, "You should not go to college for degree, you should go to college to build your career." That's why I love LNMIIT. Here, I got chance to explore a lot of things. Photography was my hobby and with LNMIIT Photography Club, I started pursuing it. In 3rd year, I clubbed knowledge of Photography + Computer Science (my branch), and started EventGraphia along with my colleague Palansh. Best thing about LNMIIT is that you live with your colleagues, seniors and most of the facilities at the campus itself for 4 years. You can learn a lot with the experience of your seniors and faculties.
"LNMIIT is the best thing that could have happened in my journey. Thanks for making me what I am today." An ignite is what one needs & I got it on the 2nd day. All credits to the amazing seniors! A pursuit is what one needs time for & I did it for the entire 4 years. All indebted to the incredible teachers! An achievement is what makes one proud of & I promise to keep making you throughout my life.
LNMIIT was not a college for me, it was an experience. Other than learning engineering related stuff, I got life experiences which I will never forget. 6 years down the line I might not remember all the courses I did. But, I remember every single experience I had. I remember the late night assignments. I remember how to work on a project with someone I don't like. My suggestion for others is "When you feel like quitting, which you will - Don't quit right now, Quit tomorrow."
It wouldn't be an understatement to say that my four years at LNMIIT were among the best experiences of my life. From the wealth of knowledge, I gained in the classrooms, to the character development in the hostels, every day at LNM helped me be a better version of myself. LNMIIT is among those rare institutions - where you don't just find Professors but Mentors; where you don't just find Seniors but Role Models; and where you don't just find Classmates but Confidants. I am proud to be a part of the LNMIIT family and thankful for that fortune day in 2010 when I decided to associate myself with this wonderful institution.

I’ve been very lucky to be LNMIIT’s Alumni. The grooming, exposure, learning, flexibility and overall environment I got at my college was the breeding ground for my startup and the number one and the biggest factor that’s positively contributed to my career. My startup’s “headquarters” for the first two years was at Boys Hall 2, room A112 🙂 LNMIIT, in my opinion, gets the best of both the worlds - the best in class faculty, like that a government university with world class infrastructure of a private university.
