Sarah Wakes is the Head of the Design Studies Department at the University of Otago. Sarah has a BSc(Joint Honours) in Mathematics and Physics and a PhD in Applied Fluid Dynamics from the University of Nottingham (UK). A post-doctoral post at the University of Hertfordshire (UK) within the Engineering School involved using advanced engineering tools such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) within diverse real-life situations such as the offshore industry and helmet design. She now heads a degree program that bridges the interface between industrial design, engineering and commerce. Current research interests are the interface between design and technology and the fluid flow within complex real-life problems. Sarah is on the editorial board for the International Journal for Multiphysics and is on the steering committee for the Otago Institute of Design.
