Aditya to orate his inspiring journey from SRM to Cornell University

October 10, 2020 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Mr Aaditya Ram always wanted to pursue higher studies with an ambition to innovate something that can make a positive difference to this world. He made SRM Family proud with his admission as a PhD scholar at Cornell University. He is currently working with Dr Nicola Dell and Dr Aditya Vashistha in the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Computer Science, and Development sociology.

He believes that SRMIST, his alma mater, recognised his ambition towards transcendental knowledge and provided him with the opportunities to apprehend his true potential. The constant guidance and support of his teachers did wonders for him. They understood his passion for research and innovation and nurtured his brilliance by revealing the inner engineer in him.

Presently, his research focuses on understanding how everyday technologies impact different aspects of work, such as professional wellbeing, in digital labour. To that extent, he is working with various service workers and stakeholders to understand how technologies, such as WhatsApp, create empowerment opportunities that can be leveraged to reduce job demands and improve professional wellbeing. He was a recipient of Engaged and Einaudi scholarships in the past.

Mr Aaditya Ram will join you today to talk about his journey and how SRM University has shaped his professional life. Come, join him at 6 pm today.
