<p data-start="492" data-end="906">I wish to express my strong interest in joining NICMAR University as a faculty member in the areas of Operations Management. My academic and professional journey has been shaped by a deep interest in understanding how analytical decision-making, process optimization, and product development frameworks can improve operational performance across engineering and management systems.&nbsp;</p>
<p data-start="908" data-end="1578">I hold a M.Tech. and Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from Malaviya National Institute of Technology (MNIT) Jaipur and completed my Postdoctoral Fellowship at IIT Gandhinagar. Over the past decade, my teaching, research, and industry engagement have centered around operations management, product development, decision sciences, and sustainable systems. My teaching portfolio includes courses such as Operations Management, Business Statistics, Lean Six Sigma, Supply Chain Management, Research Methods, and Product Management, which I have taught across engineering and management programs.&nbsp;</p>
<p data-start="1580" data-end="2151">My research primarily examines decision frameworks in product and operational systems, including risk management in new product development, lean process improvement, and sustainability-driven operational practices. My work has appeared in reputed international journals including IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management and Engineering Management Journal, among others indexed in Scopus and Web of Science. In addition, I have engaged in consulting assignments with industry partners focusing on process optimization, plant layout design, and supply chain analytics.&nbsp;</p>
<p data-start="2153" data-end="2571">NICMAR University&rsquo;s emphasis on industry-integrated learning, infrastructure and construction management, and applied research strongly resonates with my academic orientation. I see significant opportunities to contribute to NICMAR&rsquo;s programs by integrating analytical tools, data-driven decision-making, and operational excellence frameworks into management education for built environment and infrastructure sectors.&nbsp;</p>
<p data-start="2573" data-end="2950">As an educator, I emphasize experiential learning through case discussions, project-based assignments, and industry-linked problem solving. I am particularly interested in developing research and teaching initiatives around sustainable infrastructure operations, project process optimization, and analytics-driven decision support in construction and infrastructure management.</p>
<p data-start="2952" data-end="3132">I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to NICMAR University&rsquo;s academic ecosystem through teaching, research, and collaboration with industry and research partners.&nbsp;</p>
