I am a lecturer in the Department of Civil Engineering, College of Engineering, University of Duhok, Kurdistan Region, Iraq, specializing in Structural Engineering. I have over 20 years of academic experience in teaching and civil engineering education. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Civil Engineering, with research focused on the flexural behavior of high-strength concrete beams reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars and incorporating sustainable materials, including nano-glass powder and recycled PET fibers. My research interests include structural analysis, reinforced concrete structures, sustainable construction materials, and numerical modeling. My future ambition is to contribute to the development of innovative, sustainable, and durable structural systems through scientific research, academic teaching, and collaboration with researchers at national and international levels.

I am a lecturer in the Department of Civil Engineering, College of Engineering, University of Duhok, with over 15 years of teaching experience. My teaching responsibilities primarily focus on undergraduate courses in Structural Analysis and Reinforced Concrete Design.

Courses Taught:

  1. Structural Analysis – Undergraduate Level
  2. Reinforced Concrete Design – Undergraduate Level
