Interview with Mr. Manish Agrawal - Part of Series 'Know a Member'

6/8/2015

 
For this week's interview as part of the series 'Know a Member' we have Mr. Manish Agrawal. Please continue reading below to know what he has to say.

1.
 What was your biggest take-away from the training at IIT? 

Response: It’s been said by one of my professor of IIT that Graduates are Products of IITs, Post graduates are By-products of IITs and Doctorates who further produces, Products (Graduate students) are so called Slurries of IITs that possess immense experience. In my personal life, I was not as fortunate as other members who might have found their love in their alma matter. However, professionally, in general, during my PhD career, I learned that if you want water to rest your thirst, then, you need to dig 50 feet in one place rather then, 1 foot in 50 places. So, for me the biggest take away from the training at IIT as a Doctoral student is to learn and realize that to achieve something in the life one has to be honest, consistently hard working, patient, possess self-belief and deep hope.

20/7/2015

 
For this week's interview as part of the series 'Know a Member' we have Mr. Adiki Madhu Babu. Please continue reading below to know what he has to say.

1. 
 What was your biggest take-away from the training at IIT? 
Ans.  I was always confident of my abilities but IIT taught me to believe in the people around me. They implicitly end up influencing me so much that I was eventually moulded by their thoughts and actions. So I feel we need to surround ourselves with the right kind of people and I was definitely lucky to have found my set of friends back then at IIT.

2. What is your dream? What do you want to be in 15-20 years from now? 
Ans. I don't have a dream as of now. My dream is to have a dream.
