Assoc. Prof. Dr. Pooja Sharma | Fluid Dynamics | Women Researcher Award

Associate Professor at Manipal University Jaipur

Dr. Pooja Sharma is an Associate Professor (Senior Scale) and Deputy Controller of Examinations at Manipal University Jaipur, India. She has over 19 years and 9 months of teaching and research experience in mathematics, with a strong focus on fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and mathematical modeling. Her academic journey has been marked by a deep commitment to advancing mathematical research and education.

Dr. Sharma earned her MSc in Mathematics in 2003, followed by a PhD in 2010. Her doctoral research focused on “A Study of Some Problems of Free and Forced Convection Flows in Fluid Dynamics.” She was also a recipient of the Certificate of Merit for Scholarship awarded by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) in 1996.

Dr. Sharma began her academic career as a Lecturer at Jaipur Engineering College, Kukas, Jaipur, where she taught for over six and a half years (2005-2011). She then joined Manipal University Jaipur as an Assistant Professor in 2011 and has since risen through the ranks, serving as an Associate Professor since 2013. In 2019, she was promoted to Associate Professor (Senior Scale), a position she continues to hold today. Throughout her career, she has been actively involved in curriculum development, research supervision, and academic administration.
