Associate Dean for Research
Shafiqul Islam, Associate Dean of Engineering for Research
Professor Islam is the Associate Dean of Engineering for Research and the First Bernard M. Gordon Senior Faculty Fellow in Engineering at Tufts University. Professor Islam received his B.S. from the Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology in Dhaka, an M.S. from the University of Maine, and an Sc.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His research and teaching emphasize interdisciplinary approaches to understand and model the coupling between land surface and atmospheric processes, with a particular emphasis on scale issues and remote sensing. Prior to joining Tufts University, he was a Professor at the University of Cincinnati, where he served as Director of the Cincinnati Earth Systems Science Program and developed an interdisciplinary graduate program in environmental hydrology involving over twenty faculty from three colleges. He has developed international partnerships with the faculty and students at MIT, Columbia University, Purdue University, Penn State University, Princeton, BUET in Bangladesh, University of Tokyo, and ETH in Switzerland, to initiate and sustain multi-year, interdisciplinary collaborative partnerships to address contemporary problems of environmental hydrology focusing on scarcity and abundance of water. His major research sponsors include the National Science Foundation and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
