| Hi! I'm currently a graduate student specializing in [Transportation Engineering](https://www.caee.utexas.edu/research/research-areas/transportation-engineering) at the [Department of Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering](https://www.caee.utexas.edu/), [University of Texas at Austin](https://www.utexas.edu/). My academic journey began with a [BS (research)](https://ug.iisc.ac.in/) degree from the [Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore](https://iisc.ac.in/), where I majored in Earth & Environmental Science along with a minor in Mathematics. During my time there, I was associated with the [Transportation Networks Lab](http://civil.iisc.ernet.in/%7Etarunr/group.html) at the [Center for Infrastructure, Sustainable Transportation & Urban Planning (CiSTUP)](https://cistup.iisc.ac.in/). Over the past two years, I have delved into sustainable logistics and transportation. | ||
|
|
||
| My roots trace back to the picturesque city of Kalyani, nestled near Kolkata. I then moved to Bangalore, often referred to as the Garden City of India, for my undergraduate studies. Currently, I call the vibrant and musically-rich city of Austin my home. | ||

||
| ## Education | ||
|
|
||
| **Master of Science in Engineering (M.S.E)** - Aug 2023 -- Fall, 2024 (Expected) | ||
| (Admitted to the Ph.D. program with an M.S. (Thesis) en route) | ||
| *Major*: Transportation Engineering; *Minor*: Industrial Engineering and Operations Research, [UT Austin](https://www.utexas.edu/) | ||
| *Advisor*: [Prof. Stephen Boyles](https://sboyles.github.io/) | ||
|
|
||
| **Bachelor of Science (B.S. by Research)** - Aug 2019 -- May, 2023 | ||
| *Major*: Earth and Environmental Science; *Minor*: Mathematics, [IISc, Bengaluru](https://iisc.ac.in/) | ||
| *Awards*: **Gold Medal** for highest GPA in major, **Highest project grade**, First Class **Distinction** | ||
| *Thesis*: Energy Efficient and Safe Routing for Last-mile Logistics | ||
| *Advisor*: [Prof. Tarun Rambha](http://civil.iisc.ernet.in/%7Etarunr/) | ||
|
|
||
|
|
||
| ## Research Interests | ||
|
|
||
| My primary area of interest lies in transportation network analysis, traffic assignment and the optimization of routes with a focus on their environmental impacts. I have worked extensively on reverse logistics network design, variants of the Travelling Salesman Problem, and traffic routing. Recently, I developed a keen interest in congestion pricing and tolling. In my research, I consistently employ metaheuristics and mathematical programming as my go-to solution techniques. | ||
|
|
||
| **Primary Focus**: Transportation Network Optimisation, Sustainable Transportation, Congestion Pricing, Traffic Equilibrium | ||
