About
Prasad K. D. V. Yarlagadda is Dean (Engineering), University of Southern Queensland (Queensland, Australia). Previously he was Professor in Smart Systems and Project Director: Airports of the Future Research in Queensland University of Technology (Queensland, Australia). He has over 35 years’ international experience as an academic and researcher. As Project Director of Airports of the Future, he has led a significant ARC-funded research project involving six research institutes and more than 30 industry partners internationally. He has also led several other research themes and programs at QUT, including medical devices, manufacturing systems engineering and built environment engineering and research. With over 600 refereed publications, Prasad has attracted over $18 million in cross-disciplinary research funding. He had active collaboration with number of surgeons and in both orthopedic and cardio-vascular fields. His recent works on fracture fixation and production of bactericidal surfaces on orthopedic implants to minimize post-surgical infection received international attention and greatly enhanced quality of life in aged population. In 2012 he received a Prestigious Great Honor Award for his outstanding and life time contribution to the discipline of manufacturing in world Arena from Materials Division of Polish Academy of Sciences. In 2016 he was awarded Order of Australia Medal and included in Queens Birthday Honors list in recognition of his outstanding service to Engineering Profession and Indian Community in Queensland, Australia.
