Biography

Dr. Mohsin Sajjad is currently serving as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at North South University, Bangladesh. He completed his B.Sc. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), Bangladesh. Dr. Sajjad later earned his Ph.D. from the University of South Carolina, USA, with a fully funded scholarship. His doctoral research focused on device fabrication techniques, sensor development, and the integration of advanced materials for next-generation sensor systems with applications in biomedical imaging, nuclear proliferation monitoring, and space exploration.

Dr. Sajjad has an interdisciplinary research background, with expertise including micro and nano-fabrication processes, biosensors, radiation detectors, solar cells, and environmental sensors. His research interests cross over into power electronics, robotics, and UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles), enabling him to be closely tuned to the latest in technology innovation.

Dr. Sajjad has received multiple national and international awards in recognition of his research excellence. Among his notable achievements, he was awarded the prestigious SPARC Research Grant from the United States, which supported his pioneering work in advanced sensor technologies. In addition, he received a Graduate Research Grant from the University of South Carolina, and his research papers have been recognized with Best Paper Awards at international conferences. Dr. Sajjad’s research contributions have been widely published in multiple high-impact international journals and leading conferences organized by IEEE and SPIE, reflecting his strong presence in the global scientific community.

At North South University, he is actively engaged in various research works on  Machine Learning, Robotics, Hardware security and Semiconductor Physics. In 2025, He has received Higher Education Acceleration and Transformation (HEAT) Project Grant from the University Grants Commission (UGC) of Bangladesh on M^2 FabPro Lab = Micro x Macro Fabrication and Prototyping Lab.
