Amar Mukunda
Masters Student in Engineering, admitted Winter 2024
BioAmar Mukunda is a current Masters student in Civil and Environmental Engineering focused on renewable energy, infrastructure management, and biotechnology. Amar is also a Bloomberg fellow at Johns Hopkins University working on understanding gun violence and addiction in Baltimore City from a public health perspective. Amar's overall focus is developing strategies to meet America's 21st century energy and infrastructure needs while alleviating poverty and creating intergenertional wealth in the country's most deindustrialized places. Amar previously served as Assistant Director of Roca Baltimore, one of the city's premier work force development and gun violence prevention programs. From 2015-2016 he was a Fulbright Scholar researching artificial intelligence and machine learning in the field of natural language processing at Ecole Polytechnique in Lausanne, Switzerland. He graduated from Amherst College Magna Cum Laude in 2015 with majors in Computer Science and Geology.

Priya Nair
Ph.D. Student in Bioengineering, admitted Autumn 2020
BioI received my Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Engineering with a minor in Industrial Design from Georgia Institute of Technology in 2020. During my time at Georgia Tech, I worked as an undergraduate researcher in Dr. Ajit Yoganathan's Cardiovascular Fluid Mechanics Lab. My project was focused on studying the contribution of foreign materials to thrombosis in transcatheter aortic valves using an in vitro flow loop. Beyond my research interests, I was also actively involved in the Society of Women Engineers, promoting outreach activities and creating mentorship opportunities for women in STEM.

Suresh Nambi
Masters Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2023
BioI am a first-year master’s student pursuing MS EE (Computer Architecture and Embedded Systems track) at Stanford University.
My research interests lie primarily in the area of Computer Systems Architecture. My research involves the development and implementation of efficient and effective hardware architectures for a given application. I am constantly striving to improve my understanding of computing systems, to develop better intuition of the tradeoffs involved, and make better well-informed hardware architecture decisions.
Before starting my MS, I worked at Nvidia as an ASIC Design Engineer in the GPU Hardware Security team, where I contributed to the development of computer chips used in datacenters. Prior to that I worked at Ceremorphic a stealth startup on their first energy-efficient AI supercomputing test chip and gained insight into their heterogenous computing model.
I completed my undergraduate studies at BITS Pilani, India. During this period, I was associated with Prof. Akash Kumar at the Chair for Processor Design, TU Dresden for my year-long undergraduate thesis. I also had the opportunity to work under Prof. Gerd Grau during my MITACS Globalink Summer Internship. -
Jacob Troy Needels
Ph.D. Student in Aeronautics and Astronautics, admitted Spring 2019
BioJacob Needels is a current Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University. He holds a M.S. in Aeronautics and Astronautics from Stanford and a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Davis. His research focuses on computational fluid dynamics for high-speed flows, with an emphasis on nonequilibrium thermochemical models and uncertainty quantification for robust vehicle design. He works on development of the SU2 open-source software, particularly focused on implementation and validation of capabilities to model multi-species reacting gases.
