Dr. T. Durga Rao completed his M. Sc from Andhra University and Ph. D. from IIT Hyderabad. He also has postdoctoral experience and teaching experience. He does research on perovskite materials. His research interest is investigating local and average structural studies along with other physical properties such as magnetic, dielectric, ferroelectric and impedance studies and bringing structure-property correlations. He has ongoing/completed projects from DST, UGC, UGC-DAE.
