About Prajwalan
Prajwalan Karanjit is from Nepal and holds Masters of Science (MS) degree in "Security and Mobile Computing" from Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and Helsinki University of Technology (TKK). Prior to joining this program, he had a Bachelor of Engineering (BE) in Computer Science from Kantipur Engineering College (KEC) in Nepal.
Professionally, he worked with Japan Nepal Computer Collaboration (JNCC) for sometime before joining D2HawkeyeServices as a software engineer. He also had an opportunity to teach at KEC. He gave lectures on Theoretical Computer Science. In Norway, he worked with Crosshairs Embedded AS (formerly ActiveDSP AS) for over a year - again as a developer. Since September 2010, he works with SAP and is involved in development of SAP's NetWeaver Identity Management Software.
Prajwalan finds software programming very intersting. Since childhood he wanted to become a software engineer. His expertise includes designing software applications and development with languages including, but not limited to, Visual C++, C#, Java, Eclipse SDK, PHP and so on. Of course, engineering a software is much more than just programming.
Information Security is another area that he is interested in. Accordingly, his Master's thesis is on a topic related to security and privacy issues concerning Electronic Passports. He finds security related topics very interesting, yet on the same hand, very challenging. He aims to be involved in some kind of research on information security. He will, of course, be developing software also.
He is a pure vegetarian and does not eat meat, fish and eggs.
His likes taking photographs and travelling around. Some of his works can be found over his flickr page and facebook albums.
