About Me
I am Rishav Baishya, a dedicated Ph.D. Research Scholar specializing in Civil Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay. I hold a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering with a specialization in Geotechnical Engineering, supported by the prestigious Prime Minister's Research Fellowship (PMRF) under the Direct Entry scheme in 2022. With a remarkable academic record, including an MTech in Geotechnical Engineering and a BTech in Civil Engineering, I bring expertise in a wide array of fields such as Constitutive Modeling, MATLAB, AutoCAD, Finite Element Analysis (FEA), and Project Management. My research interests span geotechnical earthquake engineering, constitutive modeling, and artificial neural networks, driven by a commitment to making a positive societal impact. Additionally, I actively engage in public speaking, leadership, and creative writing, while advocating for causes ranging from education to environmental conservation.
