Bio
ABHIJIT KOTASTHANE
One requires great luck to be a student of Prof. Pradnya who has an excellent command over her area of work. She has always led by example. I had the pleasure of learning from Prof. Pradnya during three semesters of my MTech from the renowned BITS Pilani university. I was particularly inspired by her technical knowledge, clarity of thought and drive to attain perfection, while being mentored by her during preparation of my research paper. Due to her diligence and constant endeavor to push my boundaries, the paper got selected and published by a reputed technical journal. Her dedication towards her work and professional attitude was evident as many of her students chose her subjects in subsequent semesters including me. Her ability to work along with the team against a strict time schedule and continuous supervision is something that I will always miss. I am fortunate to unravel profound learnings from Prof. Pradnya and she is an asset to BITS WILP organization. I strongly recommend her for future higher professional roles.

I am so grateful to get mentoring from Prof. Pradnya while completing my M.Tech from BITS Pilani in collaboration with Wipro Technologies. Her teaching pedagogy is exceptional and she consistently demonstrates a deep understanding of the subject matter. Throughout my master's program, she employed innovative ways of teaching with a student-centric approach, which helped me to better understand complex concepts especially related to Data engineering in addition to her expertise and innovative teaching style, Pradnya Mam is also a dedicated advocate for education and empowerment. She is an active member of Lila Poonawalla Foundation, an NGO that works towards the cause of promoting girls' education and women's empowerment. Also, she made significant contributions to the field through her recent publication on an advanced intuitive model for digital forensics collection methods in the context of cloud computing and IoT. She co-published this paper with some of her students, demonstrating her commitment to mentorship and collaboration. Thanks to Pradnya Mam's guidance and support, I feel more confident and capable as a software engineering professional. Her dedication to her students, expertise in the field, and commitment to social causes make her an excellent choice for anyone seeking to improve their knowledge and skills in this area. I highly recommend Prof. Pradnya Mam as an expert facilitator from many courses in Information Systems and Software Engineering streams at WILP BITS.
