Pragya S.

I am currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at a college. I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering with a specialization in the fabrication and characterization of biodegradable bio-composite materials. My academic journey is backed by an M.Tech in CAD/CAM and a B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering.
I have served as a Junior Research Fellow at DRDO-DIBER, where I was involved in advanced materials research. My work has been published in several reputed journals indexed in SCI and Scopus, and I have presented at multiple national and international conferences. I also have a published patent on biodegradable alternatives to plastic.

My core expertise includes:
Composite Materials and Material Testing
3D Printing Technologies
Manufacturing Science and CAD/CAM
Research Writing and Technical Documentation
Software: Fusion 360

With a strong foundation in both academic and applied research, I am passionate about mentoring students, guiding projects, and delivering concept-driven teaching in engineering and design subjects.
