Hi, my name is

Manit Baser.

I like to build stuff.

I’m a PhD student at the National University of Singapore.

About Me

Hello! I am Manit. I graduated from Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani, India, where I pursued B.E. in Electrical and Electronics.

Previously, I’ve had the privilege of working at a pretty huge corporation, an E-Commerce marketplace, an AI-Driven enterprise start-up, and an EV-based start-up.

Fast-forward to today, I'm working with Dr. Mohan Gurusamy and Dr. Dinil Mon Divakaran at NUS as a PhD student, where my research is in the domain of Network Security.
