Neha Sharma

PhD in Hardware Implementation

Hi! I’m a fourth-year engineering and music conjoint student, specialising in mechatronics engineering and classical performance on the violin. I find my degree a bit of a fun contrast between two different worlds, though, over the course of my degree, I’ve taken an interest in acoustic engineering as a bit of a blend in between them. In my spare time, I enjoy running, hiking, or reading just about anything I happen to pick up.
