PMP PE Assistant Professor College of Engineering

Master of Science (M.S.) in Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Dayton, Dayton, Ohio, USA
Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Civil and Environmental Engineering Qassim University, Al Qassim, Saudi Arabia.
Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Civil and Environmental Engineering Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, USA

My research interests focus on Civil and Geotechnical Engineering, with particular emphasis on sustainability and remote sensing applications. My work specifically explores the use of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) for monitoring ground deformation, land subsidence, and assessing infrastructure performance. My research also encompasses soil mechanics, foundation engineering, sustainable ground improvement techniques, numerical modeling, and the application of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in civil engineering.
