A Talk by Lt.Gen.(Dr.) Sundaram, Prod Seminar Hall, 6th Aug 11.30am

My dear friends, 
    There will be an hour of interactive talk by Lt. Gen.(Dr.) V J Sundaram for final year 
B. Tech and M. Tech Students.
addressing the audience @(NSGDSC-2009, Mumbai). 

       Lt. Gen. (Dr.) V. J. Sundaram(Retd.), 
considered to be one of the pioneers of
 MAVs in the country.

     He is presently Advisor (Micro and Nano 
Systems) at National Design and Research
 Forum, The Institution of Engineers, 
Bangalore.
     He was the  Director of DRDL, 
Hyderabad, Proj. Director - Prithvi Missile;
 Advisor - Light Combat Aircraft,
 Formerly Consultant, ADA, Bangalore......
 the list is never ending. 
     
       His current activities are Micro Air 
Vehicles, Micro-Nano-Bio Systems as well as 
the interfacing of biology and engineering.

       He is the recipient of :National Aeronautics
 Prize, Aeronautical Society of India – 1988,
 Aryabhata Award, Astronautical Society of 
India –1998 & Instrument Society of India
 Award - 2002. He received the Lifetime
 Achievement Award of DRDO in 2005 from
 Dr. Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister of India.

     Still active, he has been the Mission 
Director for more than 35 Prithvi Flights including the
 Dhanush Mission for the Navy on 30 March 2007.

        He was also the Mission Director of the Prithvi Targets for the exoatmospheric and 
endoatmospheric Ballistic Missile interceptor missions in November 2006 and 
December 2007 respectively.

    In Dr. Kalams’ words,(from wings of fire, pg no.122)

   Even at 75 years, he is probably the stimulant for most of the national programs for MAVs.

  I think it’s a lifetime opportunity to meet such a person! What do you say?
  Guys, hope to see you in the venue…
