Academic Projects
Text Box: Review on Fabrication of Graphene using CVD technique Review on Emerging Double-Gate MOSFET Technology Review on Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Simulation of RISC processor using VHD

Personal Projects
Text Box: Laser listening device This device is a spying gadget that is capable of catching any conversation that takes place within a large radius; it works on the principle of Reflection of light. Robo-Telescope I have designed a tripod mount for telescope with two stepper motors which can be operated using a computer. In this device, the pole star was taken as reference and the sky map defined with respect to it. The stepper motors were configured such that, when the name of a star is given, it is searched on sky map first and steppers are rotated with respect to the coordinates of the star according to the map.

Honors
Text Box: I am Certified in VLSI Design Engineering Specializing in Layout Design by,Cadence, University of California, Santa Cruz-Extension. Was elected as the President of the Technical Association of ECM department, SNIST during the year 2006-2007. Was appointed as an Executive Committee Member for IEEE STUDENT CHAPTER, SNIST. Conducted student motivation activities on methodologies of Presenting Technical Papers and Mini Projects as part of Technical association. Co-Founded the The En?gma Project, (http://www.enigmaportal.com), now well known across the national student community as a project that helps students obtain useful information on academics for free. The project received the following appreciation from various personalities: Dr.P.Narsimha Reddy, Director, SNIST described the website as “the one stop for all academic needs of a student”’. Our project was appreciated by Dr.A.S.Rao, Scientist ‘G’, Department of Science and Technology, Government of India, New Delhi as one of the best students’ projects. The Hindu, well known National Newspaper of India, expressed their appreciation by publishing a half page article in the national edition of their news daily.
