ABDULLAH AL MAMUN
RESEARCHER | PHILOMATH | PERIPATETIC
Aloha!
My name is Abdullah Al Mamun. I am a 3rd-year Ph.D. student at the University of North Carolina Charlotte in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. Currently, I am working as a Teaching Assistant in the ECE department. I have completed my Bachelor's in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the International Islamic University Chittagong in November 2019.
My research interests include Demand Response, Electric Power System Resiliency, Power System Data Analytics, Integrating Smart Grid with AI. I work with Dr. Badrul Chowdhury's research group.
I call myself a Philomath (a lover of learning). From Science to Business, Sports to Religion, I love gathering knowledge, learn new things, recent trends, technology, etc. (anything that interests me). Youtube videos, documentaries are some of the prime sources of my knowledge gathering. I love reading books, watching movies, series of different languages.
I used the fancy term "Peripatetic" to describe myself in the subheader, which means I am an avid lover of traveling. Whenever I get the chance, I visit places, countries. I like to meet new people, connect with them, their culture, have a cup of coffee in a local restaurant.
If you ask me where do I see myself in 10 years, I would say "a contributing-researcher" in my field, a leader in my workplace, and a good man with a wealth of experience in life.
