Education

Ph.D. candidate, Electrical Engineering, Universitè Laval, Quebec, Canada | Sep 2022 - 2026

My studies target one of the most important issues in power systems: penetration of renewable and distributed energy resources.

We are developing solutions to account for the challenges aroused by the high penetration of DERs. Our goal is to implement the proposed solutions in real-time simulators.

Master of Science, Electrical Power Systems, University of Tabriz. Tabriz, Iran | Sep 2016 - Feb 2019

During my Master's studies, I had the privilege of serving as a research assistant, collaborating closely with my supervisor on a variety of research initiatives. Together, we explored and investigated topics aligned with the overarching objectives of our research program. My role encompassed active participation in experimental design, data collection, analysis, and contributing insights to advance our research endeavors.
