Pushkin Kachroo is the Lincy Professor of Transportation in the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV). He was a Visiting Professor at the University of California at Berkeley working with Professor Shankar Sastry. He is the director of the Mendenhall Innovation Program at the Thomas a Hughes College of Engineering at UNLV. He was an Associate Professor at Virginia Tech before he joined UNLV in 2007. He obtained his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from University of California at Berkeley performing research in Vehicle Control in 1993 under Professor Masayoshi Tomizuka, and obtained another Ph.D. in Mathematics from Virginia Tech in Mathematics in the area of hyperbolic system of partial differential equations with applications to Traffic Control and Evacuation under Professor Joseph A. Ball. He has authored 10 books on traffic and vehicle control. He has authored more than 120 publications that include books, research papers, and edited volumes. He has taught about 30 different courses in Virginia Tech in the areas of electrical and computer engineering, and mathematics. Similarly, he also taught 30 different courses at UNLV since 2007. He has graduated more than 35 graduate students, and has been P.I. or Co P.I. on projects worth more than 4 Million Dollars. He was awarded the most outstanding new professor at Virginia Tech, and also has received many teaching awards and certificates, both at Virginia Tech and UNLV. He also received the faculty excellence award from CSUN UNLV in 2011. He is pursuing an M.S. in Physics at UNLV with thesis work in Quantum Logic.
