Business Today India reports that Dhruv Rathee, born on 8 October 1994 in Haryana, completed his schooling in India before earning a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering. After graduating, he moved to Germany, where he enrolled at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and obtained a master’s degree in renewable energy engineering, focusing on sustainable energy systems.
The article notes that Rathee’s engineering background informs his YouTube videos, which blend research, graphics and explanations on politics, public policy and climate issues. While his academic credentials provide a technical foundation, the piece cautions that a degree alone does not guarantee the accuracy of every claim in his content.
