Hi! I’m Saukhya Telge, a first year Master’s student in Mechanical Engineering at EPFL, Switzerland. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (with Honours), along with a minor in Aerospace Engineering, from IIT Bombay, India.
My research interests lie in heat transfer, thermal management and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). I am also passionate about the development of space systems and have gained hands-on experience through my work on CubeSats and CubeSat-compatible systems as part of the Student Satellite Program at IIT Bombay.
Beyond academics and research, I enjoy reading fiction, listening to music and photography.
