Overview:
I, Dr. Prabhakar Singh, am an Associate Professor and Head with Mahindra University École Centrale School of Engineering in the Civil Engineering Department. My research mainly focuses on understanding the runoff and erosion processes via modelling, lab and field experimental validation. My area of expertise is surface hydrology, vadose-zone hydrology and watershed modeling. During My tenure as HoD, department has successfully conducted national conference, various workshop and symposium. We have also started M. Tech. and PhD program in Civil Engineering Department. Soon, we are going to launch another Master’s Program.
