North Carolina A&T State University, Greensboro, NC 27411 Dr. Mohan is currently a professor of Nanoengineering in the Department of Nanoengineering, at

North Carolina A&T State University (NCAT) leading computational nanoengineering research. He is also an Adjunct Professor of Nanoscience at Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, and is an affiliated professor with Computational Science and Engineering Graduate Program. Dr. Mohan’s research and educational activities have been continually funded over the years by several US federal agencies, defense industries and private organizations. Over the years at NCAT, building upon his core research field of mechanics and materials, Dr. Mohan has led and established new research directions and capabilities, which includes Additive Manufacturing (AM) equipment and infrastructure for hierarchical material developments and research investigations, high performance computational systems, and low length scale mechanical characterization. In addition, Dr. Mohan played a key leading role in the development and establishment of two graduate programs (Computational Science and Engineering, Nanoengineering) at North Carolina A&T State University. He is recipient of 2012 University Senior Researcher Award and 2017 Interdisciplinary Team Research Award at NCAT. Dr. Mohan has a clear understanding and vision for interdisciplinary, system of systems solutions needed for complex problems based on his educational and research upbringing and philosophy.
