..I've gone to one or two university profs at places like Ohio State or
Purdue...

Forget OSU!

Ohio State has become a refuge for Indian postgrads in manufacturing
engineering and related fields. They're very good.

Purdue has a longer tradition of research in the field, and there are a
several cow colleges, including my alma mater, Michigan State, where you'll
find some really good people.
