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.
Nous sommes honorés d’entretenir un partenariat de longue date avec le Programme national de bourses d’excellence (National Merit Scholarship Program) par le biais deNational Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC), une organisation indépendante à but non lucratif. Chaque année, Commvault finance, par l’intermédiaire de la National Merit Scholarship Corporation, des bourses d’études destinées aux enfants des employés de Commvault résidant aux États-Unis qui entreront à l’université à la rentrée.
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 est en terminale au lycée de biotechnologie, un établissement spécialisé du New Jersey proposant un programme STEM rigoureux et axé sur les sciences de la vie. Tout au long de son parcours au lycée, Aarav a approfondi ces disciplines en menant des études, des stages, des travaux de recherche et d’autres activités extrascolaires, notamment en assumant des responsabilités dans ces domaines.
À l’automne, Aarav intégrera la Dyson School de l’université de Cornell, où il suivra un cursus en économie appliquée et gestion, avec une spécialisation en finance, en tant que boursier du programme « Rawlings Presidential Research Scholar ».
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.
Comme beaucoup de nos « Vaulters », Aarav a apprécié le toboggan, a joué au ping-pong et au baby-foot dans les salons répartis dans tout le bâtiment, s’est rendu à la cafétéria sur place et a tout simplement passé du temps avec sa maman et l’équipe d’ingénierie.
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.
