  • Microsoft has announced, Satya Nadella as its next CEO, who will replace Steve Ballmer. 8 things you should know about Satya Nadella Courtesy: Times of India 1. Hyderabad-born Satya Nadella, 47, attended Hyderabad Public School in Begumpet before getting a Bachelor of Engineering in Electronics and Communication from the Manipal University. 2. After moving to the US, Nadella earned Master of Science degree in Computer Science from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. He also completed Master of Business Administration from the University of Chicago. 3. Nadella has been with Microsoft since 1992. During his long tenure with the company, he also held a key responsibility at Bing, and although Bing has never been Microsoft's crown jewel, Nadella helped it grow. 4.

  • Answer:

    He seems not very happy with his undergrad education, this is the truth as everyone in India knows and he was blunt about it - Nadella “always wanted to build things,” he says. He knew that computer science was what he wanted to pursue. But that emphasis was not available when he attended Mangalore University in India, where he got a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering. “And so it was a great way for me to go discover what turned out to become a passion,” he says.

Honestly, none of the students give a fuck. I've interacted with quite a few of them and some people have responded by asking me who he is. The only people who care are the management. They've put up a bloody huge banner of his face right as soon as you enter college. I wouldn't be surprised if Rajeev Suri's face shows up on a banner next.
