This story was adapted from <\/em>a feature<\/em><\/a> on the Bowers CIS website.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Patricia Waldron <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, Hussain Ahmad Mohammad, MEng \u201923, thought a Fulbright scholarship was his ticket to advance both his career and his country. At the time, he was a semifinalist with plans to study systems and networking at a U.S. university, then return to Afghanistan to improve Internet access in rural areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when the U.S. military pulled out in August 2021, the Taliban returned to power and diplomatic relations between the countries ended. For Mohammad and about 100 other semifinalists, that ticket to the U.S. evaporated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With support from the Bowers College of Computing and Information Science<\/a>\u2014and a lot of hard work and persistence\u2014Mohammad realized the first part of his plan, completing his master’s of engineering in computer science on the Hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCornell was a dream school for me,\u201d he says. \u201cNever in my dreams would I have thought that I\u2019ll make it to Cornell.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Cornell was a dream school for me.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

In fall 2024, he\u2019ll pursue a doctorate at the University of Chicago, where he hopes to tackle complex problems in the area of systems and networking\u2014and perhaps one day improve Internet connectivity for users everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jalalabad, Afghanistan, is where Mohammad\u2019s family calls home\u2014but due to political unrest in his country, they moved to Peshawar, just across the border in Pakistan, before Mohammad was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His father worked as a trader in Peshawar, which allowed Mohammad to attend good schools. When his family moved back to Afghanistan in 2002, Mohammad stayed behind, visiting only for holidays and summer vacations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a child, Mohammad\u2019s first experience of the wider world was through the Internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Pakistan in 2005, Internet access was expensive and limited. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But as long as he took turns with family members and promised not to use all the bandwidth, he could get help with homework, play games with friends, and explore life beyond his local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI could see the whole world,\u201d Mohammad says. \u201cIt was like I had everything on my laptop.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mohammad wanted to do his undergraduate degree work in the U.S., but received a scholarship to the Institute of Management Sciences in Peshawar, where he majored in computer science. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To continue his studies, he applied for a Fulbright. The program funds international recipients to pursue graduate degrees at U.S. institutions before returning to their home countries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

I could see the whole world. It was like I had everything on my laptop.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

When the program in Afghanistan ended suddenly, Mohammad and about 100 other semifinalists took to Twitter (now X). The L.A. Times<\/em> ran a story<\/a> on their plight, describing Mohammad\u2019s desire to study computer science at Cornell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s when the administration at Bowers reached out to see what they could do to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It became clear that Bowers couldn\u2019t revive his scholarship, but they could scrape together some funding. Computer science professor Nate Foster<\/a> ultimately agreed to take him on as a master of engineering student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first semester was challenging, Mohammad says. He had a heavy courseload with rigorous classes that were not in his first language. He was also starting his research, auditing additional classes, and learning how to navigate the University\u2014all while getting settled in a new place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe was just incredibly persistent and resilient,\u201d Foster says. \u201cCornell is not an easy place, especially when you\u2019re just figuring out the system.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the research component of his degree, Mohammad worked on programmable networks\u2014a type of network in which the flow of information and the behavior of network devices are controlled by software that operates independently of network hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

He was just incredibly persistent and resilient.<\/p>\nProf. Nate Foster<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

He developed a system that will allow network operators to add rules to a programmable switch so that it acts like a firewall. The system filters out malicious packets of information, such as malware sent from an insecure website that could take down a network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mohammad received a grant for a third semester and graduated in spring 2023. His family could not attend, but saw him walk across the stage on the livestream. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the power of the Internet\u2014they could watch my graduation ceremony live from Peshawar,\u201d he says. \u201cIt was like they were there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
