I am Masrur Mahedi, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Civil Engineering at Utah Valley University. I earned my Ph.D. in Civil Engineering (Geotechnical Engineering) with a minor in Soil Science from Iowa State University, following an M.S. in Civil Engineering from The University of Texas at Arlington and a B.S. in Civil Engineering from the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology.
My research focuses on geotechnical and geo-environmental engineering, with emphasis on climate change impact, smart infrastructure materials, pavement and granular road systems, and environmental remediation. I have led and contributed to federally and state-funded projects sponsored by agencies including UDOT, MnDOT, Iowa DOT, FAA, NSF, and the U.S. Department of the Interior.
