Summary
Romit Maulik is an assistant professor and Perry Scholar in mechanical engineering at Purdue University with 11 years of experience bridging high-performance computing, scientific machine learning, and multiphysics modeling. He earned a PhD in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and progressed from postdoctoral fellowships into research scientist roles at Argonne National Laboratory before faculty positions at Penn State and Purdue, where he holds a joint appointment with Argonne. His research focuses on multifidelity algorithm development for nonlinear dynamical systems with applications across aerospace, Earth system modeling, and nuclear fusion, and he is an Army Research Office Early Career Awardee. Known for translating advanced computational methods into scalable HPC workflows, he combines deep theory with practical code developed during his time at national labs. A less obvious strength is his sustained cross-institutional collaboration pattern—academic appointments intertwined with national-lab roles—that accelerates technology transfer from theory to production-scale simulation.
