Here at Commvault, we’re committed to giving back to our communities and driving forward our passion for educating and mentoring the next generation, specifically in STEM.
Es un honor para nosotros mantener una colaboración de larga duración con el Programa Nacional de Becas al Mérito, gestionado porla National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC), una organización independiente sin ánimo de lucro. Cada año, Commvault patrocina becas a través de la National Merit Scholarship Corporation para los hijos de los empleados de Commvault residentes en EE. UU. que vayan a comenzar la universidad en otoño.
Scholarship recipients are selected by a NMSC committee based on academic record, scores on the PSAT/NMSQT, student’s essay, demonstrated leadership, and contributions to school and community activities, and a school official’s written recommendation and characterization of the candidate.
This year, we’re thrilled to announce Aarav Kumar as the winner of Commvault’s 2024 Corporate-Sponsored Merit Scholarship.
Aarav es un alumno de último curso de la Biotechnology High School, un instituto especializado de Nueva Jersey con un riguroso plan de estudios en el ámbito de las ciencias, la tecnología, la ingeniería y las matemáticas (STEM) y centrado en las ciencias de la vida. A lo largo de su trayectoria en el instituto, Aarav ha profundizado en estas disciplinas mediante estudios académicos, prácticas, investigación y otras actividades extraescolares, entre las que se incluye el liderazgo en estas áreas.
Este otoño, Aarav comenzará sus estudios en la Dyson School de la Universidad de Cornell, donde se especializará en Economía Aplicada y Gestión, con una especialización en finanzas, en calidad de becario presidencial de investigación Rawlings.
Aarav has many fond memories of Commvault from his childhood. Throughout his elementary school years, Aarav often visited our Tinton Falls, N.J., headquarters with his mom, Mridula Kumar. He attended events such as Take Your Child to Work day, which included STEM workshops like Kids Coding and Your PC: How It’s Made, to name a few.
Al igual que muchos de nuestros «Vaulters», Aarav disfrutó del tobogán, jugó al ping-pong y al futbolín en las salas de descanso repartidas por todo el edificio, visitó la cafetería del recinto y, en general, pasó el rato con su madre y el departamento de Ingeniería.
Mridula Kumar is a Lead Engineer in our SaaS Engineering department and has been with Commvault for 16 years. When she was notified that Aarav had won this scholarship, she said, “Commvault does a fantastic job of introducing children to STEM, and we do so in a fun way. I am very happy and excited that Aarav has been awarded the Commvault National Merit Scholarship. I’ve seen Aarav work hard over his four years of high school and consistently excel in whatever he does, so seeing his hard work receive this level of recognition makes it all worthwhile.”
We congratulate Aarav on winning Commvault’s 2024 Corporate-Sponsored Merit Scholarship and wish him good luck at Cornell.
We’re proud to cultivate a culture where investing in the next generation of leaders is a key priority.
