Dr. Jagadish Vengala is a Head of Civil Engineering at Prasad V Potluri Siddhartha Institute of Technology. They possess expertise in concrete, construction, earthquake engineering, engineering, autocad and 12 more skills. Colleagues describe them as "I had a fantastic time with him—a man of strength and truly a “jack-of-all-trades.” The life lessons he shared are unforgettable. Our interactions were especially close during my tenure as the student body president of IIC, and his open-mindedness and support in event planning set him apart. I vividly remember approaching him with the idea of hosting a national-level hackathon, something unprecedented, and he immediately said yes. That moment showed me he recognizes potential and dedication in others. Though he wasn’t a faculty member in my field of CSE, he imparted invaluable lessons, both in college and on our bike rides. It was a great privilege to be mentored by him. Thank you, sir, for everything." and "I have known Dr. Vengala as a scientist and a Professor who has been working keenly on various building materials particularly on the engineering characterization of bamboo and its seismic performance in various housing systems. Dr. Vengala has been actively associated with me for conducting various awareness workshops on promoting bamboo housing particularly in the North-Eastern region of India. He has been involved in the development of an app on bamboo in collaboration with BMTPC, New Delhi, India. As a former President of World Bamboo Org, I have seen his enthusiasm and focused efforts in promoting bamboo as a building material in India. As part of his Doctoral research work, Dr. Jagadish carried out extensive experimental and analytical simulation studies on the seismic performance of bamboo housing. He is having good oratory skills and his talks are clear, concise, and engage the audience. He has delivered more than 175 invited & guest lectures at various National and International forums to date. As an organizer for many hands-on workshops, I could see his training abilities and motivating the team to a greater extent. He is one of the promising people who is promoting bamboo for construction and housing for sustainable development. I look forward to more innovative bamboo works from Dr. Vengala. Best wishes"
