Teaching Achievements

My teaching philosophy combines fundamental engineering knowledge with computational methods, practical applications and research-based learning. I encourage students to develop independent problem-solving skills through numerical modelling, engineering design projects and research activities.

Student Research Supervision and Mentorship

Supervision of undergraduate and postgraduate students in structural engineering, computational mechanics and numerical simulation projects.

Engineering Design Competitions

Supported and guided student teams participating in engineering competitions, including the Wooden Bridge Competition and academic research competitions.

Research-Based Engineering Education

Integrated advanced computational techniques, finite-element modelling and modern engineering software into teaching activities to expose students to current research methodologies.
