    Kumari Swati

    About


    Dr. Kumari Swati is a researcher and academic specializing in High Voltage Engineering and Power & Energy Systems. She holds a B.Tech in Electrical Engineering from Dr. B. C. Roy Engineering College, West Bengal University of Technology (2014), followed by an M.S. and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from IIT Madras (2019), where her doctoral work focused on electrical insulation and thermal performance of transformer systems with nanomaterial dispersions.

    Before joining this institute, she served as Assistant Professor (Grade II) at NIT Rourkela (July 2024 – August 2025). She was awarded the SERB (now ANRF) National Post-Doctoral Fellowship and worked as Principal Investigator for that projectat Jadavpur University, Kolkata (March 2022 – March 2024). Earlier, she was Project Manager at the IDEAS–Technology Innovation Hub, ISI Kolkata (June 2021 – March 2022) under the DST-NMICPS scheme, and a Post-Doctoral Fellow at Khalifa University, Abu Dhabi (January 2020 – January 2021). She also held the position of Institute Pre-Doctoral Fellow at IIT Madras following her thesis submission.

    Her professional affiliations include membership in IEEE (USA), and she has also contributed to institutional administration as convener of multiple committees at Technology Innovation Hub - ISI Kolkata.

    Additionally, she is a Registered Patent Agent with the Patent Office, Government of India. At NIT Rourkela, she served as a member of the Intellectual Property Innovation Centre (academic responsibility) and as the departmental PIC for patent filing.
