About Ghulam Ali Doulat.

Ghulam Ali Doulat was born in Afghanistan and raised in Karachi, Pakistan, the ninth and youngest child in his family. His parents left Afghanistan in 2001. Growing up, he developed a strong academic drive and curiosity about technology and systems — questions of how things are organized, connected, and made to work reliably.

In 2018, he was selected to attend UWC Red Cross Nordic in Flekke, Norway — a two-year international boarding school programme that brings together students from over 90 countries. It was there that he discovered the scale of impact that data and technology can have on institutional decision-making. In December 2019, Ghulam Ali Doulat was chosen as one of five UWC RCN student representatives to attend the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony in Oslo, where Abiy Ahmed Ali received the award. That moment — sitting in Oslo City Hall among world leaders and scholars from across the globe — reinforced a conviction that the most important problems are always international in scope.

In August 2020, Ghulam Ali Doulat enrolled at the University of Oklahoma's Gallogly College of Engineering to pursue a B.S. in Computer Science, supported by the Davis United World Scholarship. During his undergraduate years, he was active across the campus: President of the Computer Science Student Board (2021–2022), Internal VP of The United World at OU, Secretary and Campus Ambassador of the Shia Student Association, and Founder of the OU Futsal Club. He also served as a Teaching Assistant for MIS and data analytics courses from August 2022 through May 2024, mentoring more than 200 students in SQL, Python, and Excel.

His academic performance earned the Sower Award (December 2021 — awarded to OU students with a 3.5 GPA or top 10% of their class), the Gallogly College of Engineering Scholarship (August 2021), and the Cleo Cross Award from the David L. Boren College of International Studies (April 2022 — awarded annually to outstanding international students at OU). He graduated with his B.S. in Computer Science in May 2024.

In August 2024, Ghulam Ali Doulat began his M.S. in Management Information Technology at the University of Oklahoma's Price College of Business, expected completion May 2026. The program deepened his focus on data systems, business intelligence, and analytics at enterprise scale. Coursework has included Analytics Programming (Python), Managing Business Intelligence, Health Info Technologies, Cyberanalytics, and Data Science and Analytics.

He has been working simultaneously: as a Data Engineer Intern at INTEGRIS Health since June 2025, building and optimizing data pipelines and reporting infrastructure; and as an AI & Business Intelligence Analyst at OU Residence Life since May 2025, where he built an OpenAI GPT chatbot and Tableau dashboards that measurably reduced operational planning time. He also volunteers with the Aga Khan Education Services and tutors peers through Knack (4.6/5 rating, 25 student ratings).
