Prasad has an impressive academic credentials. He secured the university first rank as well as the state level overall highest percentage of aggregate marks, considering all the examinations of all the semesters of the undergraduate engineering B.E. degree program, across all the universities of the Karnataka State in 1972, and was awarded the 'Karnataka State Gold Medal for The Best Engineering Student of The State'. His doctoral research work in CMU in the area of 'optimum design of engineering systems that accounts for the uncertainties in parameter values' has effectively revitalized the research investigations in that area, by his novel initiation in opening up an entirely new approach which has now been well recognized and followed, as the most rational and systematic conceptual advancement in that field.
In addition to his long tenure in academia, Prasad has extensive experience in various fields - including his initial exposure to the manufacturing industry, corporate as well as national R & D work, both in USA as well as in India. He has shown convincingly, that he is very quick and efficient in learning new things and attaining expertise in new areas; and has felt very comfortable in dealing with the variety of diverse work situations that he has gone through, being distinctly outstanding among his colleagues and co-workers in every organization that he worked for. Prasad has demonstrated excellent leadership in every situation, and has been singularly conspicuous among his colleagues, indeed as a visionary genius.
Above all, Prasad is endowed with a rare combination of an extremely sharp intellect (depth-in-thinking) along with a highly sensible mind (balance-in-judgement) and a humane heart (breadth-in-feelings). Also, he is noted for his integrity of character and pleasant disposition. He has a special talent for teaching in its broadest sense, and is an exemplary (inspiring) teacher indeed, although (or maybe, because) he prefers to consider himself as a student all through life: "Life, the best teacher; and Living, the best Learning"!
