About
A chemical engineer (BTech-Honors) by training from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT)-Kharagpur, Saurabh Shenvi Usgaonkar is currently pursuing his PhD (Chemical Engg.) at University of Minnesota-Twin Cities (USA). His research interests include fluid mechanics, applied mathematics, and colloids and interface science. Prior to joining the PhD program, he gathered some practical experience working at Syngenta India Limited (Goa, India) as an operations engineer and at National Chemical Laboratory (NCL, Pune, India) as a research assistant. At NCL, he worked on a breadth of research areas including polymer science, additive manufacturing, electrochemistry and energy storage, and rheology. He previously served as a part-time faculty for Mathematics at PACE Academy (Panaji, Goa) to train high school students towards cracking IIT-JEE and other competitive engineering exams in India.
