Careers

A distinguished academic and researcher specializing in solid-state physics and semiconductors, with extensive experience in university teaching, academic administration, and scientific research. I hold advanced degrees in physics and have conducted research on flexible solar cells in collaboration with international institutions.

I began my academic career as a teaching assistant and later became a faculty member at the University of Tripoli, where I taught physics to students in the faculties of science, engineering, medicine, and pharmacy. Over time, I progressed through various academic positions, eventually serving as Head of the Physics Department, where I contributed to curriculum development and the enhancement of educational quality. I also held the position of Director of the Study and Examination Office, where I worked on improving academic assessment systems and ensuring the application of quality standards.

Currently, I serve as the Director of the International Cooperation Office at the university, where I focus on building and strengthening partnerships with local and international institutions in the field of higher education. Additionally, I have joined the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering, contributing my expertise in materials physics and its applications in the medical field.

My achievements include leading academic teams, publishing research in solid-state physics and renewable energy technologies, and contributing to the development of innovative solutions in the field of semiconductors and their applications. I also have expertise in utilizing simulation software for applied physics research. I am proficient in both Arabic and English and possess strong skills in academic leadership, curriculum development, and fostering international collaborations in academia and research.
