Full Name: 
Dr. Durga Prasad C
About Me: 
I am a Mechanical Engineer with a keen interest in areas that blend fields of Engineering, Manufacturing and Material science. I love the process of an idea taking shape into something concrete through lab efforts and the post-experiment analysis. Communicating and sharing of the ideas thus developed is a great passion of mine and I see teaching as a means to learn as well as impart the knowledge gained. Constantly, looking for opportunities in research in areas of interest. Currently working in the research areas of Thermal spray coatings, microwave hybrid heating process, wear, and corrosion studies.
