🎓 Arushi’s advice for incoming students: Go to office hours, talk to your TAs and professors, and become friends with your peers. Some of the best learning happens outside the classroom. Arushi Sharma describes her time UT as being defined by “growth, curiosity, and the people around me.” She says UTCS gave her opportunities to explore a variety of interests, including app development, machine learning research and projects that focused on real world impact. Her time at UTCS helped her learn what type of engineer she wants to be and what kind of problems she wants to help solve, and after graduation, she will be moving to Seattle, Washington to work as a software engineer at Amazon. Congrats, @arushi.sharmaaa ! by @utcompsci

UT MSAI Spotlight: Carter Leslie 🎓 Reflecting on his journey through the program: I thought I was going to be on my own for the majority of the class but soon discovered that there’s a very active UTMSAI discord group, along with separate channels for each class. Through them, I was able to find a community to be a part of while pursuing my degree. It’s truly been an honor and a pleasure working with, learning from, and even helping teach some of my classmates as I got further into the program. Currently a software engineer at USAA, Carter plans to transition into an AI/ML engineering role upon completion of his degree. Looking ahead, he is motivated to apply AI in ways that improve people’s lives across industries like healthcare, autonomous systems, and beyond. Congratulations Carter! 🤘 by @utcompsci
