I have recently completed twenty four years of service at BITS, Pilani. I joined BITS, Pilani, Pilani (Rajasthan) on 16^th August, 2000, with field experience of nine years in research, consultancy, development and also teaching at post-graduate level at Centre of Energy Studies and Research, (CESR) Indore. As a Coordinator appointed for the newly established Centre for Renewable Energy and Environment Development (CREED), I was responsible for maintaining and further development of educational and research activities at the CREED. The prior experience helped me develop funded programs at Pilani Rajasthan and start Ph.D. research program in the areas related to renewable energy.

In May, 2004, I was transferred to BITS, Pilani Goa-Campus, in very early stages of its development then. I was entrusted the responsibility of Faculty In-charge (Administration) of the Campus. In the capacity of Faculty In-charge (Admin) I did contribute to development of the Institute on all fronts, including setting requisite offices and recruitment of essential staff and faculty, mentoring newly recruited faculty and staff members, development of instructional laboratories to be managed by different Groups (now Departments), and coordinating all essential services to complete satisfaction of the stake-holders. As a senior member of the faculty of the Institute, I did coordinate setting up research facilities, particularly in the area of solar energy systems, wind energy systems and developing network with related departments of Government and Institutions in the state of Goa. The first sponsored project sponsored by the MNRE through GEDA, was completed during Aug, 2009 to August, 2012. The outcome of the project completed helped continue developing new research programs and facilities on the Campus.

As a senior faculty member of the EEE Group, I could coordinate setting up of instructional Labs for the students of the FD program offered by the Group. For certain courses, where faculty members were not available, I did develop capability to teach courses that were new to me. New  activities, such orientation of new recruits, intensive teaching workshop, training of technical staff were conducted where limited human resource was required to participate in capacity building for the Institute.

I served as Faculty In-charge (Administration) from 02 June, 2004 till 15^th, April, 2011. Thereafter, I served as Faculty In-charge (Faculty Affairs) until January, 2015. Also, I served as the Head of the Department, Dept of EEE, from 21^st November, 2013 till 21^st November, 2017.

I continue to contribute to the Institutional Development, to the best of my capabilities and whenever I am entrusted with new responsibility I tend to rise to the occasion and deliver!
