<p class="MsoNormal">As an M.Tech graduate in Infrastructure Design and Management from IIT Kharagpur, with a Bachelor of Architecture and hands-on experience in academic projects on transportation facilities, urban settlements, and sustainable infrastructure, I am eager to join NICMAR University as an Assistant Professor. NICMAR's legacy as India's premier institute for advanced construction management, real estate, and infrastructure education aligns seamlessly with my expertise and passion for bridging theoretical knowledge with practical innovation in the built environment.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My academic journey has equipped me to contribute meaningfully to NICMAR's mission and the continuous learning thought process. In order to excel in the domain I have enrolled myself in the MBA program as well. During my M.Tech, I led projects on resilient transportation project planning and sustainable practices, integrating tools like Python, R, PLS-SEM, AutoCAD, QGIS, and Photoshop for design visualization. For instance, my thesis explored identified the service quality factors and analysed relationship of attitudinal perceptions on transit passenger&rsquo;s well-being, directly relevant to NICMAR's focus on infrastructure management and sustainability. Presenting research posters at international conferences honed my skills in disseminating complex concepts, preparing me to mentor students in NICMAR's rigorous UG and PG programs.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What draws me to NICMAR is its emphasis on industry-aligned research and real-world problem solving. The university's centres for sustainable construction and smart cities resonate with my work on eco-friendly designs, where I applied life-cycle assessments to minimize ecological footprints. I envision contributing to NICMAR's initiatives by developing curricula on BIM-integrated infrastructure, climate-resilient planning, and AI-enhanced visualization, areas where my proficiency in design software and perspective sketching can inspire hands-on learning. Collaborating with NICMAR's faculty on projects like urban infrastructure for smart cities would allow me to leverage my insights into India's rapid urbanization challenges.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Beyond teaching, I am committed to fostering NICMAR's vibrant research ecosystem. My experience in LinkedIn networking and academic outreach positions me to secure industry partnerships, enhancing student placements and funded projects. I aim to supervise students on urban infrastructure, using case studies from my portfolio to cultivate critical thinkers who drive India's infrastructure boom.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Joining NICMAR represents more than a career move; it is an opportunity to shape the next generation of leaders in construction and management. In a nation racing toward Net-Zero by 2070, NICMAR's forward-thinking ethos inspires me to contribute my blend of architectural creativity, technical rigor, and sustainability advocacy. I am excited to bring energy, innovation, and dedication to your esteemed faculty, advancing NICMAR's vision of excellence.</p>
