"I received my B.Sc. in Civil Engineering from the Islamic University of Gaza in 2000 and my M.Sc. in Water Resources and Environmental Engineering from Jordan University of Science and Technology in Jordan (as a DAAD scholar). In 2006 I moved to Aachen and started my PhD at the RWTH Aachen University in the field of Hydrology. I enjoyed my life in Aachen, which is a small but very attractive city located on the westernmost German boundaries near Belgium and the Netherlands. I utilized my PhD research work and my stay at the university to get involved in the German culture. Therefore, I have participated my German colleagues in several culture, social and free-time activities. This gave me the feeling that I belong to the research group I have worked in, and give a family-similar atmosphere which have enormous positive impacts, even on my research achievements. I also get benefits from the several courses (scientific, language and cultural) the RWTH Aachen offered during my stay. I also enjoyed with my little family the life in Aachen; we enjoyed the “Karneval” and the very famous “Weihnachtsmarkt” in the old part of Aachen. We also traveled around the city, visited another German cities and our neighbor countries, where we also learnt several cultures.
As a natural outcome for the hard work and for such a progress, I finished my PhD with a “magna cum laude” and joined a research group and worked as a Postdoctoral researcher at the University of Bonn. Afterwards, I worked as a “Referent” in the field of Research Management at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. Since late 2014 I am working as a Project Coordinator at the German Federal Highway Research Institute. As a part of my work, I am coordinating national and EU-based projects in the field of Environmental Protection. Within my work I am dealing with several stakeholders including universities, research institutes, and governmental and non-governmental institutions.
I consider my life in Germany as a continuous learning process, with a capability for self-monitoring, self-feedback and evaluation of my own progress. My goal is to particpate in spreading the values of acceptance, tolerance and patience; as a major mean for a peaceful community."
