Mahin Rahman

Welcome! I'm Mahin Rahman, and I’m glad you're here to explore a glimpse into my world of planning, research, and impact-driven work. This website reflects my journey, interests, and aspirations in urban and environmental planning.

I am currently pursuing my Master of Urban and Environmental Planning at Arizona State University. I earned my Bachelor of Urban and Regional Planning from Khulna University of Engineering and Technology (KUET) in 2024. During my undergraduate years, I co-founded a research group focused on addressing pressing issues, including climate change, environmental degradation, and sustainable urban development.

I work as a research assistant at the Planning for Urban Resilience Lab, where I contribute to spatial modelling efforts on green infrastructure planning to mitigate urban stormwater and heat risks. My research interests span GIS and remote sensing, urban heat stress, vulnerability mapping, and environmental impacts of transportation and deforestation.

My practical experience includes an internship at Narayanganj City Corporation (NCC), where I developed a vegetation spatial database for Sheikh Rasel Nagar Park and analyzed environmental impacts for urban spaces. I've also collaborated on advanced machine learning projects to forecast urban heat stress in arid cities like Riyadh.

Beyond academics and research, I’ve been actively involved in non-profit organizations, taking on leadership roles, mentoring peers, and volunteering at national conferences, as well as planning events. These experiences have enhanced my abilities to manage projects, communicate effectively, and thrive in collaborative environments.

Thank you for visiting—I hope you find inspiration and insight in the work I share here.
