What role do I play on the Council?

I am a Student Ambassador for the MSITM Program and currently serving as the President of the ITM SLC.

What I like the best about the program?

The best part of MS-ITM program is the course curriculum which is tailored to meet the Industry requirements. You get to choose subjects from different tracks and can even get a certification for completion of courses from a track. Internship is a key part of master’s program and even though I joined virtually in Fall 2020, I could secure a Summer Internship. Another key feature of MS-ITM would be the industry knowledge we get through the projects in curriculum. Most of the courses in program provide an option to get certified in the domain.

My advice to you

Embrace the New Normal, it is here to stay for a long time! Make valuable connections and reach out to other students, faculty and even alumni. Join Student organizations so you get an experience of managing studies along with extra-curricular activities. And the most important would be to make the most of these 2 years!
