Rate My Professor Rajan Ambat

Ambat leads the Corrosion Research Group and manages the Center for Electronic Corrosion (CELCORR), the CreCon Industrial Consortium for Climatically Reliable Electronics, and the PDJF Center for Climate Robust Electronic Design (CRED) at DTU. His research focuses on corrosion reliability of electronic systems, surface engineering of aluminium alloys, corrosion mechanisms at macro, micro, and nano-scales, electrochemical processes, microstructure-corrosion relationships, corrosion in carbon capture and storage materials, stress corrosion in alkaline electrolysis, and AI applications in corrosion prediction. He has authored the book "Humidity and Electronics: Corrosion Reliability Issues and Preventive Measures" and over 60 journal papers, including "Corrosion Reliability of Electronic Systems" (2008), "No-Clean Solder Flux Chemistry and Temperature Effects on Electrochemical Migration" (2019), and recent publications such as "Investigation of kinetics of ECM dendrite growth during corrosion in electronics" (2026). With more than 7,600 citations on Google Scholar, his work has substantial impact on corrosion engineering, particularly electronics robustness. Ambat received the Dr. K. Elayaperumal National Award 2024 for contributions to corrosion science. He develops and teaches courses on materials selection and corrosion, supervises PhD students, and organizes international seminars on climatic reliability of electronics.
