An Amity University Noida aerospace engineering student secures a fully funded Airbus-supported research grant at the University of Southampton for aircraft noise reduction research.
Amity University Noida has once again reinforced its reputation for research excellence in aerospace engineering, with one of its students earning international recognition for work addressing a critical aviation challenge.
Tanishka Verma, an Aerospace Engineering student from the Batch of 2025, has been awarded a fully funded research scholarship at the University of Southampton, supported by global aerospace leader Airbus. The prestigious grant recognises her contribution to advanced research in aircraft noise reduction, one of the most persistent challenges in modern aviation.
Tackling a Global Aviation Challenge
Aircraft noise has long been a concern for the aviation industry, particularly during take-off and landing phases. Tanishka’s research focuses on propeller–wing interactions and other aerodynamic mechanisms that contribute to excessive noise generation. By analysing how these interactions amplify sound, her work aims to influence the design of quieter, next-generation aircraft, improving passenger comfort and reducing environmental impact around airports.
The collaboration itself marks a significant milestone—bringing together one of the world’s most respected aerospace manufacturers and a university globally recognised for cutting-edge aeronautical research.
Research-Led Learning at Amity
Amity University Noida’s strong emphasis on early research exposure plays a central role in such achievements. Students are introduced to live industry projects, mentorship from scientists and industry leaders, hands-on laboratories, and real-world problem-solving well before graduation.
A Culture of Scientific Excellence
Tanishka’s success reflects a broader research-driven culture at Amity. With active collaborations involving organisations such as Airbus, Boeing, and ISRO, students regularly engage with projects shaping the future of aerospace, defence, and aviation technologies.
By encouraging research publications, patents, and innovation-led thinking, Amity continues to redefine what it means to be an innovation-driven university in India.
Conclusion
Tanishka Verma’s journey—from an aerospace engineering classroom to a fully funded Airbus-supported research programme—stands as a testament to Amity University Noida’s commitment to global research excellence. Her work in aircraft noise reduction is not only a personal achievement but a meaningful contribution to the future of sustainable aviation.
