Dr. Ashish Shukla received his PhD from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. He was awarded a prestigious FCS fellowship to work at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich, in the Department of Architecture. Currently, he is an assistant professor of building engineering physics at Coventry University in the United Kingdom (UK). He is a prominent building physicist and a sustainability expert. His research interests are building engineering physics, energy management, energy-generating building envelopes, and energy storage. His vision is to design self-evolving climate-responsive sustainable buildings through integrated building design to bring new low-carbon innovations to onsite construction practice. He is also a fellow member of the Higher Education Academy in the UK.
