mohammad Ariful Islam

I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Information Systems at the University of Melbourne.

My research interests include Mental Health Management, Social Media Analysis and Sports Journalism.

Along with my studies, I work as a Manager at cricfrenzy.com. I also have experience as a Teaching Assistant at the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB), which helped my teaching and mentoring skills. Outside of academia and work, I am dedicated to community service and research, aiming to make a positive impact on society while growing both personally and professionally.
