Kashmiri Student Graduates From World’s First AI Research University
Srinagar- Kashmiri student Hanan Gani has achieved a significant milestone in the field of artificial intelligence, successfully researching and publishing papers at top global conferences. This accomplishment comes as a result of his master’s degree in machine learning from Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI) in Abu Dhabi.Gani, who studied Electronics and Communications Engineering from National Institute of Technology (NIT) Srinagar, is a resident of north Kashmir’s Baramulla. He previously worked at Samsung India as a machine learning engineer.
It was a great experience working for such a large company, but I was mainly working on existing projects, and I was keen to work on something completely new. This is what led me to study for a master’s in machine learning at MBZUAI,” Gani said. “I decided to take the plunge and leave my job for academia and pursue my dream of researching and publishing papers at top conferences.”He was part of a cohort of 101 students from 22 countries to graduate on June 6 in MBZUAI’s Class of 2024, which is the world’s first university specializing in AI research. The largest nationality was UAE, with 24 students, and India was one of the top countries represented along with Egypt.The ceremony was attended by His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Chairman of Abu Dhabi Executive Council, who congratulated the three Ph.D. and 98 master’s degree recipients.
