I hold a Ph.D and Master degrees in Electrical Engineering from North Carolina A&T State University, Greensboro, North Carolina, USA. Prior to that, I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology.

My area of research interest are cluster computing, artificial intelligence application in signal processing, control system, image processing and time series prediction, parallel and distributed computing, power system simulation and fault analysis, pattern recognition, integrated system development in e-commerce and open source computing.

Before joining IIUM I worked in IT industry as a Developer, System Administrator, System Analyst and Utility Engineer (Power) at various places such as Goldman Sachs (New York, USA), North Carolina A&T State University, Saudi Consolidated Electrical Companies (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia) and Bangladesh Power Development.
