I’m Dr. Nabaz Ibraheem Mohammed—Assistant Professor of Hydrology and Environmental Science and Vice President for Student Affairs (VPST) at the University of Duhok. This Academic Digital Portfolio (ADP) is a curated space where I share my journey as an educator, researcher, and environmental advocate.
Here, you’ll find a window into my academic world—spanning teaching, research, publications, mentorship, and collaborative projects that address some of the most pressing challenges in water resource management and environmental sustainability. Whether I’m guiding students in the classroom, presenting research at global conferences, or working with partners in the field, I’m driven by one purpose: to connect knowledge with impact.
This portfolio is for my students, colleagues, collaborators, and anyone passionate about science with a purpose. Explore my teaching philosophy, dive into my research folio, browse selected publications, and discover opportunities to connect and collaborate.
🔗 Let’s make knowledge count—across disciplines, borders, and generations.
Teaching, for me, is a dynamic exchange—a way to ignite curiosity, guide discovery, and empower students to become thoughtful, solution-oriented professionals. I see every classroom as a launchpad for real-world impact, where theory meets practice and ideas are tested in the field. My approach blends scientific rigour with compassion, fieldwork with critical thinking, and mentoring with collaboration. I invite you to explore my teaching philosophy and discover how I strive to create meaningful, engaging, and transformative learning experiences.
My research is driven by a deep commitment to understanding our environment and improving the way we manage natural resources—especially water. From investigating groundwater systems in France to addressing contamination and sustainability issues in Iraq, my work is rooted in real-world challenges and shaped by international collaboration. I blend hydrogeology, environmental chemistry, and policy relevance to generate solutions that serve both science and society. I invite you to explore my research portfolio and see how I work across borders, disciplines, and communities to make a lasting impact.
Every publication I author is a step toward advancing knowledge, sharing solutions, and building bridges between research and practice. From peer-reviewed journal articles to field-based reports, my work spans hydrogeology, water quality, environmental sustainability, and interdisciplinary science. I believe that open, accessible scholarship is essential to addressing global challenges and empowering future researchers. I invite you to explore my published work, theses, and citations—and see how each contribution reflects a commitment to scientific integrity and societal relevance.
