After graduating with a master’s degree in engineering from Drexel University in Philadelphia, Dhairya Pujara wanted to use his education to create meaningful solutions in the world. So he gave up his plans for a corporate job and took off to Mozambique, Africa.
For the next five months, Dhairya worked on the ground in a rural hospital. Despite six years of engineering training, he found himself ill prepared to translate his classroom knowledge into skills for real-world problem solving. He launched Ycenter to co-create solutions and better align education with the challenges facing our world.
