Professor Sanjiva Lele is the Edward C. Wells Professor at Stanford University, where he serves in the School of Engineering and the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics. His research focuses on the application of numerical simulations to study fundamental unsteady flow phenomena, turbulence, flow instabilities, and flow-generated sound. His recent projects have explored areas such as shock-turbulent boundary layer interactions, supersonic jet noise, wind turbine aeroacoustics, and multi-phase flows. He has over three decades of experience in the field and has published extensively on high-fidelity computational methods for engineering applications. He is a recognized leader in fluid dynamics and has received multiple awards for his contributions, including the Fluid Dynamics Prize from the American Physical Society and the AIAA Aeroacoustics Award. He has served as an Associate Editor for notable journals and has been involved in various professional committees and boards throughout his career.
The Computer Science department emphasizes research potential. GRE General is currently optional but recommended for some tracks.
