43 | Dhrupad has an optimistic life approach and keeps working hard

Dhrupad Bhardwaj | Associate at PDT Partners

Dhrupad graduated with a Computer Science degree from the University of Pennsylvania. Initially he chose Mechanical Engineering, as it was a subject that fascinated him. He used to dislike Computer Science in highschool as the learning was all theoretical, without any practical application. However in College, he got acquainted with programming languages and solving problems using logical abilities. His CS Professor inspired him to switch to CS.

Due to the flexibility in University, Dhrupad was able to make this change in majors and was also able to study Computational Biology. What really helps him thrive in this field is knowing that Maths can help solve even the most minuscule problems.
