Teaching1. Communicated complex ideas related to Discrete Time Signals and Systems to undergrad students in Electrical Engineering domain.2. Planned the tutorial contents each week to deliver the material in an efficient and time-bound manner.Research1. Proposed and planned a project on transferring (from image classification applications) and creating novel data augmentation methods for object detection applications for a graduate student, and guided him through the completion of the project (Aug-Dec 2021). The project was approved by Dr. Maria Amer.2. Proposed, planned and supervised part of the undergraduate Capstone project under Dr. Maria Amer, where the students worked on transferring data augmentation techniques from image classification to object detection applications, and comparing their performances (Sep 2021 - Apr 2022).

Himachal Pradesh, India

1. Planned and delivered undergraduate and graduate level courses in VLSI Circuit Design domain. 2.

Singapore

1. Designed a digitally controlled ring oscillator using Cadence Analog Design Environment (ADE), supported by a Low Drop Out voltage regulator (LDO), to generate frequencies in the range of 400-600 MHz, for my Masters’ dissertation at NTU. Communicated the results of the project through a dissertation report.2. Developed circuit layouts for error avoidance flip-flops standard cells using Cadence Layout Editor, to be realized in the respective digital/mixed-signals ICs.3. Completed a project to analyze the performance of wireless sensor nodes in terms of energy harvesting, accuracy, reliability, and communication link quality, while monitoring ambient conditions in a Green Mark building. Communicated the outcomes of the project to the Head of the NXP Research Asia Lab through weekly presentations and in a written report on completion.

Chandigarh Area, India

1. Collaborated in deploying Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) for snow-met data collection in the Indian Himalayas. Analyzed the collected data and documented the challenges faced and communicated the findings through a journal paper.2. Designed and evaluated an electronic instrument (Multi-layer Settlement Measurement Tower or MSMT) to measure settlement in different snow layers for avalanche forecasts. Upon validation of the prototype, the tower was deployed in different locations throughout the Indian Himalayas to collect data for improving the avalanche prediction process.
