I am Chathu, a PhD student in Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering at RMIT University. I’m undertaking a research project in collaboration with BASF Coatings, Germany.
I completed my undergraduate Bachelor (Hons) degree majoring in Chemical Engineering at Monash University (Clayton, Australia) in 2016 and my Masters-by-Research degree at RMIT University (Melbourne, Australia) in 2021. I possess a strong passion for research & development and have worked in a few highly distinct areas including nanocomposites, wastewater, and corrosion protection.
In my free time, I enjoy hiking & travelling as they always give me a sense of excitement, achievement, and satisfaction (…and of course the breathtaking views).
