I’m pleased to share the successful completion of a significant milestone in my academic journey — my Diploma in Computer Science & Engineering from DRIEMS Polytechnic, under the aegis of SCTE&VT Odisha, with a final CGPA of 8.20, earning me a Distinction.

This chapter has been both rigorous and rewarding, offering far more than what’s taught in books. It has been a time of intellectual growth, technical exploration, and personal transformation. Over the span of three years, I have evolved not only as a student but as a technology enthusiast ready to embrace complexity and innovation.

Building Real-World Skills

Throughout my diploma, I engaged in several hands-on projects and industry-relevant activities that helped bridge theory with practical application. Some notable experiences include:

-🦾 Designing and developing a real-time robotic arm controlled over Wi-Fi using ESP32 and WebSockets, combining embedded systems with responsive web interfaces.

-🛠️ An enriching internship at Alpha EV, where I contributed to:

  • Assembling and testing IoT-enabled vending machines and a mobile surveillance rover.

  • Performing energy and cost analysis for EV charging infrastructure.

  • Gaining exposure to real-world practices in robotics and industrial IoT.

-💡 Participating in multiple tech events and workshops that honed both my presentation skills and collaborative problem-solving abilities.

These experiences fostered a mindset of innovation and resilience—qualities that I believe are essential in today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape.

A Vision for the Future: Cyber Security & Cyber Defence

With a solid foundation in core computing principles and real-time systems, I am now ready to take the next leap — pursuing a B.Tech in Cyber Security and Cyber Defence.

In an era where digital threats loom large, the need for skilled professionals who can secure systems, detect vulnerabilities, and defend infrastructure is more critical than ever. This upcoming academic chapter will allow me to delve into:

  • 🔐 Ethical hacking and penetration testing
  • 🔍 Digital forensics and incident response
  • 🌐 Network and infrastructure security
  • 🧠 Cyber intelligence and risk mitigation strategies

My diploma journey has shaped my interest in these areas, and I’m looking forward to applying both my hardware background and software skills to explore the multidimensional world of cybersecurity.

Gratitude and Forward Momentum

I owe immense gratitude to DRIEMS Polytechnic for nurturing my growth, to my mentors for their guidance, and to my peers and family for their constant encouragement. This achievement is not an endpoint but a stepping stone.

As I step into the world of cyber defence, my goal is clear — to become a responsible, skilled, and adaptive technologist capable of contributing meaningfully to digital safety and technological advancement.

The journey continues, and I’m more driven than ever.
