MINI PORTRAIT

I come from Chehim, in Lebanon, and I started my studies in the Faculty of Engineering, at the Lebanese University, specializing in civil engineering. I came to France as part of a double degree with the Centrale Nantes for a research master in civil engineering: materials and structure in the environment. I was also  in charge of communication for the ANADYL association in Nantes.

I am a faculty member at ESTP PARIS Dijon Campus. I am in charge of coordinating the curriculum over the three years of training and 200 hours of civil engineering courses and I develop research activities with the Institute for Research in Constructability (IRC). This position is interesting because I have a lot of responsibility for teaching evaluation, organising practical work and participation in examination and advisory boards in the school.

WHAT ABOUT ECO-RESPONSIBILITY?

In choosing my line of work, I mainly took into account the activities in which I would be involved, the atmosphere of the work team and the long-term vision.

WHAT ARE YOUR SHORT OR MEDIUM TERM GOALS?

I aim to supervise PhD students and interns and to develop my research internationally and nationally.

WHAT ASPECT OF YOUR TRAINING BEST PREPARED YOU FOR YOUR CURRENT ROLE ?

The solid grounding in civil engineering, teamwork spirit and communication techniques.


WHAT DID YOU LIKE AT CENTRALE NANTES ?

I felt at home. Centrale Nantes really helped me to settle in in France, and I learnt how to work in a team to run successful projects.
