Short Biography

Jim Shiau is currently Associate Professor at University of Southern Queensland, Australia. He received a Ph.D. degree from University of Newcastle, NSW, Australia where he continued two years of post-doctorate under the leadership of late Laureate Professor Scott Sloan.  His research focuses on deep braced excavation and soft ground tunnelling, sinkhole stability, and finite element limit and shakedown analyses for geotechnical stability problems. Jim Shiau has extensive experience in the design of underground structures. He enjoys the breadth of general practice with interests in geotechnical stability research.  He has published more than 20 high-impact Q1 journal articles as both first and corresponding authors.

Jim Shiau has also involved in the organisation of several international conferences in Australia since 2014.  He has chaired three international conferences in 2004, 2007 and 2008.  Jim Shiau is a passionate and creative educator in geotechnical engineering. He is experienced in geotechnical education with the uses of project based learning, physical modelling, and short videos for online learning. He was a recipient of USQ Teaching Award.
