Biography

As the Director of Information Systems at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) College of Business for over 16 years, Chakri Deverapalli was instrumental in managing and advancing the college's computer networks, ensuring seamless operation across all computer equipment and software. His role extended beyond technical management to include teaching classes and offering expert technical consultation to faculty. Deverapalli collaborated closely with the University's Computer and Network Services unit to integrate the Business Administration Building into the broader campus network. He also led and supervised the professional and administrative staff within the College's Office of Network Support, driving the success of the institution's technological initiatives.

In addition to his role at UAH, Deverapalli is the founder and CEO of RAGASEU, a software development company dedicated to enhancing student success through data-driven insights. His flagship software, Integrate, collects data from learning management systems to identify struggling students, enabling timely intervention by support services.

Deverapalli holds three master’s degrees—electrical engineering, computer engineering, and management—all from UAH. He is also a certified SAP Business Associate and a Project Management Professional (PMP®).
