Mayank Kaushik was born in Gujarat, India in 1983. From 2001-2005, he was educated at the NRI Institute of Information Science and Technology at Bhopal, India, where he obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering with honours. During his Bachelor Degree, he worked as a trainee at the Space Applications Centre (Ahmedabad), Indian Space Research Organisation, in the Microwave Remote Sensing Area (MRSA) and Microwave Sensors Data Acquisition and Processor Division (MSDAPD), on a project entitled Matlab Simulation of Digital Pulse Compression and its Implementation on Xilinx FPGA Device and successfully designed a Synthetic Aperture Radar range compression chip.

In 2006, he came to Australia to pursue higher education and received his Master’s Degree in Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering (Adv.), from the University of Adelaide in December 2007. Soon after that he was appointed as a research assistant at the University of South Australia (and later at the University of Adelaide) to work on various audio signal processing related projects for the Defense Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO).

In August 2009, he was granted the University of Adelaide Divisional Scholarship to study towards his PhD under the supervision of Brian W.-H. Ng, Bernd M. Fischer, and Derek Abbott. During his candidature, Kaushik was successful in publishing his research work in a number of high impact journals. He received two IEEE South Australia Section travel scholarship awards and the Walter & Dorothy Duncan Trust Grant to present his research work at the 35th and the 36th International Conference on Infrared Millimeter and Terahertz Waves, held at Rome in 2010 and in Houston, TX, in 2011, respectively. In March 2012, he obtained a position at the Defense Science and Technology Organisation, Edinburgh, as a radar research scientist.
