Visit to Paytm Company Axis Colleges wanted to connect what students study at college with what they do in the real world, so they took students from Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) and Information Technology (IT) on a very interesting trip to Paytm, one of India’s top fintech startups. The goal of this project was to provide students a better understanding of the rapidly changing world of digital payments and the cutting-edge technologies that power one of India’s most successful tech companies.
The Paytm team welcomed the students and gave them an instructive presentation about the company’s history, its main services, its technological infrastructure, and the new ideas that have changed the way people do business online in India. Students learned a lot from this visit, which showed them how major computer platforms work without a hitch to manage millions of users and transactions every day.
During the visit, the students learned about backend development, data security, mobile app architecture, cloud computing, and AI-based fraud detection systems. They learned how Paytm uses big data analytics, machine learning, and real-time monitoring to make sure that users have safe and smooth experiences. These real-world examples helped students understand what they were learning in class and how to use it on a large scale.
Students could ask questions and learn about the collaborative workflows utilized in agile tech settings via interactive sessions with the engineering and product development teams. The people at Paytm also talked about their careers, told students what skills are most in demand, and told them to keep coming up with new ideas and adapting to the fast-paced world of technology.
This tour not only helped the students learn more about the technical side of things, but it also taught them about workplace culture, how to manage a project’s lifecycle, and how to innovate at an enterprise level like a startup. It made a lot of people think about what they want to do in the future in the software development and fintech industries.
Axis Colleges is happy to offer such deep industrial experiences that combine academic quality with up-to-date knowledge of the industry. The trip to Paytm was a big step toward getting our CSE and IT students ready to be skilled, confident, and ready for the job market.
