He had a defense in July 31 2020 and is supposed to graduate in Aug 2020. Congratulations!

Congratulations!!! Mr. Emon successfully defended his Ph.D thesis in April 2. All the committee members loved his research and congratulated on his degree. He is the 4th doctor following Drs. Morteza Vatani, Yanfeng Lu, Faez Alkadi in AAML. He is currently finalizing publication work before he graduates in summer.

Due to the COVID-19 crisis, the defense was accomplished by a Webex conference.

A new paper titled “Conformal additive manufacturing using a direct-print process” authored by Alkadi et al. has been published in Additive Manufacturing (Vol 32, 100975). Congratulations!
