The research has to do with finding out similarities and differences between these two methods, integrating the two and demonstrating its effectiveness by applying this to a practical case study like Automotive braking system, steering system etc. The work till date has been updated as a poster on his webpage. His field of interest is Quality Engineering aptly reflected by the courses he did till date like Taguchi System of Quality Engineering, Statistical Process Control, Tolerance Design, Design & Analysis of Experiments. He is currently working on two papers titled "Integrating Assembly Feasibility with Information Axiom and Quality Loss Function" and "Similarities and differences between Axiomatic design and Robust design" for ASME winter conference in November. He is the current president of Missouri S&T Chapter of American Society for Quality and a student member of ASME.
