EDUCATION

BEng (Hons) Electrical Engineering, University of Wollongong, Dubai, U.A.E.

(September 2014 – May 2019)

§ Leader of two consecutive year design projects: prototype of an interactive pillbox, mainly for dementia patients, which alerts users to take medication on time and a prototype of a dual-axis solar tracker that captures the maximum sun rays by tracking the movement of the sun. These prototypes were presented at the 2017 and 2018 UOWD UAE Software Tradeshow, which received positive reviews from various industrial experts.

§ Conducted research and developed a prototype for a year long dissertation to minimize energy consumption of nodes in software designed networks. This was implemented by minimizing energy consumption of nodes. Achieved up to 10% energy efficiency in software-designed network.

§ Received the Outstanding Academic Excellence Scholarship for continued academic excellence. Technologies used: MATLAB, C++, Arduino, Simulink, Excel, PowerPoint EMPLOYMENT HISTORY
