Meet Tanishq Matthew Abraham, the 21-year-old American prodigy who graduated high school at 10, earned 3 degrees by 11 and published research at 14

Tanishq Matthew Abraham was doing college-level work when most children were still years away from higher education. He graduated from high school at 10, earned three associate degrees by 11 and went on to graduate from UC Davis summa cum laude at 14. By 19, he had earned a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering, as per a report by NBC News and Tanishq.ai.

Tanishq Matthew Abraham's academic journey began years earlier than most people's. He was just 7 when he started taking classes at a local community college, while still in high school.

By the time he was 10, Abraham had graduated from high school with a 4.0 GPA. A year later, he had earned three associate degrees, also with a 4.0 GPA.

His achievements continued at the University of California, Davis, where he was admitted at 12 to pursue his undergraduate studies. At 14, he graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in biomedical engineering.

Abraham's academic path eventually led to a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering, which he earned at 19 after successfully defending his dissertation.
