She was formerly working at the Engineering Mechanics Unit of the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research[1] and is now a professor at the TIFR Hyderabad[2] Centre for Interdisciplinary Sciences. Prof. Govindarajan is a recipient of the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award for the year 2007. EducationShe did her undergraduate degree (B.Tech.) in Chemical engineering from IIT Delhi, in 1984. She got her master's degree (M.S.) in Chemical Engineering, from Drexel University, Philadelphia, United States, in 1986. Her doctoral degree (Ph.D) thesis is on the subject of Aerospace Engineering from the Indian Institute of Science Bangalore, in 1994. She worked in Post-Doctoral Research, in Dept. of Aeronautics, Caltech during 1994.[3] CareerShe started her career as scientist in the Computational and Theoretical fluid dynamics division of National Aerospace Laboratories, Bangalore, and worked there for a decade from 1988 to 1998. She became a faculty member at the Jawaharlal Nehru Center for Advanced Scientific Research and worked in that position between 1998 and 2012. Since 2012, she is a professor at the TIFR Centre for Interdisciplinary Sciences. She has published a large number of technical papers in her field of specialization of fluid physics and has also published a few books.[3] Her main research interests relate to instability and transition to turbulence of shear flows, physics of interfacial flows.[4][5] AwardsOf the many awards that she has received so far, the most notable is the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award for the year 2007 for her "original contributions to the understanding of instabilities in shear and non-parallel flows, flow entrainment, turbulent transition and small-scale hydraulic jumps". She was also awarded with the Young Scientist award of 1987 and Outstanding scientist award of 1996 given by the National aerospace laboratories. She received the CNR Rao Oration award of 2004 at JNCASR Bangalore.[6] References1. ^http://www.jncasr.ac.in/rama/ 2. ^http://www.tifrh.res.in/tcis/tcis-faculty/rama-govindarajan.html 3. ^1 {{Cite web|url=http://www.tifrh.res.in/tcis/tcis-faculty/rama-govindarajan.html|title=Rama Govindarajan|accessdate=15 March 2014}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.scilogs.com/in_scientio_veritas/noted-women-scientists-of-india/|title=Noted Women Scientists of India – an attempt at enumeration|accessdate=15 March 2014}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.ias.ac.in/womeninscience/LD_essays/117-120.pdf|title= Lilavati's Daughters:Dream Your Dream|accessdate=15 March 2014}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.pib.nic.in/newsite/erelease.aspx?relid=45971|title=Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar prize for the year 2007 & 2008|accessdate=15 March 2014}} External links{{SSBPST recipients in Engineering Science}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Govindarajan, Rama}} 20 : Living people|Recipients of the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award in Mathematical Science|Tata Institute of Fundamental Research faculty|Indian chemical engineers|Articles created or expanded during Women's History Month (India) - 2014|Indian women chemists|20th-century Indian chemists|Scientists from Hyderabad, India|Indian Institute of Science alumni|20th-century Indian engineers|20th-century Indian women scientists|21st-century Indian women scientists|Indian fluid dynamicists|20th-century Indian physicists|Indian women physicists|Women scientists from Andhra Pradesh|21st-century Indian chemists|21st-century Indian physicists|21st-century Indian engineers|Year of birth missing (living people) |
