Biography

Biography

Dr. Riham A. Mohsen joins the Department of Building, Civil and Environmental Engineering as an Assistant Professor from the University of Prince Edward Island. She has more than fifteen years of professional experience in Oil & Gas industry before joining the academic career. 

Her research focuses on modelling of pollutants, air pollution, climate change resilience, carbon footprints, life cycle assessments and risk assessments. Her developed models applied first order decay modelling and multi criteria assessment techniques as well as measurement techniques to quantify and project emissions. Dr. Mohsen holds a PhD in Environmental Engineering from the University of Guelph, Canada.
