ResearcherCollabI am Dr. Md. Shakhawat Hossain, currently serving as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Textile Engineering at Khulna University of Engineering and Technology (KUET). I hold a PhD in Frontier Fiber Technology and Science from the University of Fukui, Japan, completed in March 2024. Prior to that, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Textile Engineering from Bangladesh University of Textiles (BUTex), where I am also pursuing an M.Sc. Additionally, I hold an MBA from Jahangirnagar University, Bangladesh. With over 7 years of industrial experience in various managerial roles in a 100% export-oriented knit dyeing industry, and nearly 10 years of teaching experience in undergraduate engineering education, I have supervised 21 undergraduate projects to successful completion. I am a proud member of the Institution of Textile Engineers & Technologists (ITET), The Institution of Engineers, Bangladesh (IEB), and a Life Member of the Japanese Universities Alumni Association in Bangladesh (JUAAB). My research interests include the development of organic-inorganic hybrid materials, inorganic nanofibers, new functional materials (films and fibers), knit fabric processes, knit fabric structures, and knit fabric finishing. To date, I have published over 30 peer-reviewed journal articles and conference papers, with 8 more currently under review.
