The Department of Computer Science organized a Peer Learning Session on “Strengthening Your Professional Coding Portfolio: LeetCode, GitHub and LinkedIn” for the students of S.Y.B.Sc. Computer Science, Semester III (AY 2026–27). The session was designed to guide students in developing a strong professional online presence and improving their coding portfolio.
The session was conducted by students of T.Y.B.Sc. Computer Science, Semester V, as part of the peer-learning initiative. The session for SYCS was scheduled on Monday, 17th August 2026, at 8:30 AM. The peer facilitators for the sessions were Somil Dholkia (TYCS A - 08), Tanisha Parab (TYCS A - 36), and Samiksha Chougule (TYCS A - 07).
During the session, students were introduced to coding challenges and were guided on selecting appropriate problem sets on LeetCode. The discussion focused on helping students understand how coding practice and participation in coding challenges can contribute to building a stronger professional coding portfolio.
The session also covered GitHub profile and repository management. Students were guided on uploading their projects and managing repositories effectively. Emphasis was placed on maintaining an organized coding portfolio that can showcase their practical work and technical capabilities.
The session also focused on creating and enhancing LinkedIn profiles, including showcasing students’ technical skills, certifications, projects, internships, and achievements. The peer-learning approach helped students understand how LeetCode, GitHub, and LinkedIn can be used to strengthen their coding and professional portfolios.
A total of 54 students attended and actively participated in the session. Students were encouraged to carry their laptops and use their email accounts to create or update their profiles. The session was informative and beneficial in guiding students towards building a strong professional online presence. The Department of Computer Science appreciates the efforts of the T.Y.B.Sc. Computer Science students for conducting the session and contributing to the professional development of the S.Y.B.Sc. students.
