Shayan Mirzabeigi is an Assistant Professor of Sustainable Construction Management at the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY ESF). Prior to the current role, he pursued his Ph.D. in Sustainable Construction Management at SUNY ESF under the guidance of Professor Mohamad Razkenari and Professor Paul Crovella. Additionally, he is pursuing a second Ph.D. in Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering at Syracuse University, working with Professor Jianshun Zhang in the Building Energy and Environmental Systems Lab (BEESL). He received his MS degree in Building Engineering from Politecnico di Milano, Italy, in 2020. His master's dissertation was about solar radiation and human comfort. His first degree was a bachelor’s degree in Architectural Engineering from the University of Tehran, Iran, in 2016. With degrees in three majors (Architectural, and Building Engineering; Construction Management; and Mechanical Engineering) from three countries (Iran, Italy, and U.S.), Shayan’s research is highly interdisciplinary and collaborative. His current research interests cover: Building Simulation; Energy Efficient Buildings; Integrated Building Assessment; Building Physics; Building Envelope and Materials; and Sustainable Built Environment Ph.D. in Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering, Syracuse University, 2025 (expected)Ph.D. in Sustainable Construction Management , SUNY ESF, 2024M.S. in Building Engineering, Politecnico di Milano, 2020B.S. in Architectural Engineering, University of Tehran, 2016 Research Assistant, Syracuse University, 5-8/2021 and 2/2022-PresentGraduate Assistant, SUNY ESF, 8/2020-5/2021, 8/2021-5/2022 and 8/2023-1/2024- Automated Vision-Based Building Inspection Using Drone Thermography
