"I am doing Advance Master in IT(QUT). I loved Java and Sun Microsystem since I was back at my home country (Pakistan). My past experience in IT starts with working in Bank Alfalah LTD in Jaranwala. Now I am campus ambassador of Sun Microsystem at QUT. I always dream about working for sun and this is a great opportunity to learn more about huge Platform of Sun.

"I am currently a postgraduate student at The University of Melbourne, studying for a PhD in Computer Science.
As Campus Ambassador I have started University of Melbourne, Open Source University Meetup (OSUM) for our university. As part of OSUM I organize regular training on Basic JAVA and SUNSPOT. Apart from that we have regular tea session which attracts lots of students and help our OSUM to grow steadily.
I also have initiated a student project, Service Oriented VoIP (SOVoIP), we are developing this novel Voice over IP (VoIP) architecture as open source project.
OSUM gave me an opportunity to initiate a program that is named as CREATE. With CREATE my aim is to bridge the digital divide in the world by creating a world of equal opportunities, new jobs, better communication and necessary awareness for everyone with the help of ICT.
It has been a great experience and honor to represent SUN in the campus. I get to meet lots of great people, gathering real life industry experience and always feel like part of a big family. "
