About
Dr. Sandhya Shenoy is a highly accomplished Principal Research Scientist currently serving at Srinivas University, where she has been contributing significantly to the field of materials science for several years. With a robust academic and professional background, her research spans multidisciplinary areas, focusing on materials chemistry, computational chemistry, thermoelectrics, photocatalysis, supercapacitors, and the synthesis of nanomaterials and nanofluids. Her career trajectory has been marked by various prestigious fellowships, awards, and honors, underscoring her expertise and excellence in her field.
Dr. Shenoy completed her Ph.D. in Materials Chemistry from National Institute of Technology Karnataka (NITK) in 2013, after which she began her academic and research career. Her first faculty role was at National Institute of Technology Karnataka (NITK), where she served as a Lecturer in Chemistry in 2013-2014. From there, she moved to Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), where she worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher from 2014 to 2017. This experience laid a solid foundation for her research career, particularly in the theoretical sciences related to material development and chemistry.
Dr. Shenoy’s trajectory took another significant leap when she joined Srinivas University as a DST INSPIRE Faculty Fellow from 2017 to 2022. During this time, she further established herself as a leading researcher in materials science. Her achievements led to her recognition as a SERB Research Scientist from 2022 to 2024. In late 2024, she was appointed as the Principal Research Scientist at Srinivas University, a position she holds to this day, where she leads cutting-edge research in materials and nanotechnology.
