"There is only one thing more painful than learning from experience, and that is not learning from experience."
~ Archibald MacLeish
Hola Junta!
Internships are an integral part of our college lives, perhaps the most important of all. During the preparations, we come to know our flaws, it is during this time we indulge in serious healthy competitions, we come across a lot of saanps 🐍(who are exposed as soon as they become CM on CF 😛). We get ample support from our seniors and the online world to prepare for the internship tests, but what is missing is the knowledge of what happens inside the internships. After getting summer sorted and before the internship begins, the phase is the most chill, and we often lose grip on some important requited concepts. More importantly, we are unaware of the principles and practices used in industries. Although these are not a must-have before the internship begins, they can provide you a headstart and improve your chances of getting a PPO!
Matrix, IITG brings to you an exclusive series, "Inside the Internships," where we interact with the students who did their internships in hotshot companies and managed to steal the PPO offers.
First, in the series, we present the experience of Jatin Dhingra, a final year Mathematics major at IITG who successfully completed his internship at Rubrik and got a PPO too!

"The laws of nature are written by the hand of God in the language of
Mathematics."

In the randomness around us, patterns and designs are what defines the nature. And the struggle to hack these patterns has led us towards mathematics.

Putting some light on such observations, Matrix IITG brings you another blog anchoring on the nature and it's unique relationship with mathematics.

“Mathematics is the handwriting on the human consciousness of the very spirit of life itself”

We have all been, at some point in our lives, curious about where our consciousness originates. Some people took this curiosity ahead, and developed a working mathematical model describing consciousness itself! Who knew, consciousness itself can be broken down into various components.

Matrix, IIT Guwahati brings you Part 1 of another blog series focusing on the mathematical modelling of consciousness.
