An IIT-M faculty bags the NASI-SCOPUS award

A colleague and a close friend of mine from our department, Prof. Tanmay Basak, has won the NASI-SCOPUS Young Scientist award.

Tanmay works in the areas of microwave processing, heat transfer and fluid dynamics. He is considered foremost authority on microwave driven flows and visualization of heat transfer through Bejan’s heat lines concept.

This is a great personal achievement for Tanmay and a proud moment for our institute. Also important is the context. Our department “loses out” to ICT-Mumbai, IIT-Kanpur, IISc and IIT-Bombay, in terms of faculty recruitment as well as graduate student hiring. In this respect, Tanmay’s achievement is especially commendable. Awards like this help both the recipient as well as the department.
