Aravind Ranganathan poses with his prize, an iPod nano

Aravind Ranganathan, a PhD student in Computer Science at the College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS), recently won an iPod nano by participating in the Knovel University Challenge. 

The Challenge was a nationwide contest for engineering students, and required them to locate answers to technical questions using collections in the Knovel online technical resource.  Knovel is a subscription product paid for by UC Libraries.  Aravind won in the “Contest Within a Contest” category.
