Dr.YogeshIyer Murthy completed his PhD from Jaypee University of Engineering and Technology, Guna in 2021. The focus of his PhD work was on corrosion mitigation of reinforced concrete structures using Magnesium alloys as sacrificial anodes. He did hisM.E. (Structural Engineering) from SGSITS, Indore with his thesis on transient dynamics of laminated fiber reinforced composite plates using quadrilateral flat facet shell elements in the year 2010. He did his B.E. (Civil Engineering) from Dayanandasagar College of Engineering, Bangaluru in 2002 with honors.

He has worked with L&T ECC as Sr. Bridge Engineer (Chennai Division) on a State Highway Project (TNRSP-03). He has served Mandsaur Institute of Technology, Mandsaur from 2007-08, and IPS Academy, Indore in various capacities for 8 years. During this tenure he was also handling IEDC funded research projects worth Rs. 13 Lacs.During 2012-2014, he worked as research assistant at the thermodynamics of materials group (TMG), Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, Concordia University, Montreal, Canada, where he was working on the ternary phase diagrams of Mg alloys using diffusion couple technique. He is conversant with the use of Scanning Electron Microscopy, Inductively Coupled Plasma and X-Ray Diffractometer.
