Associate Professor

Bio

Dr. Ali is an Assistant Professor of applied mathematics at the College of Interdisciplinary Sciences at Zayed University, Dubai. Prior to this, he held various academic positions as researcher and assistant/associate professor at the University of Witwatersrand (Joburg, South Africa), SEECS-NUST (Pakistan), Brock University (Canada) and Royal Commission (Saudi Arabia). During his professional career, he has been widely acknowledged for outstanding performances in both teaching and research through medals, awards and certificate of Appreciations. He investigated the impact of polarization diversity gains in MIMO systems of dual-polarized antennas in his recent research project as a principal investigator in a funded project.

With his customized pedagogical skills suited to individual students, he has co-supervised both MS and PhD students in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department. He has also supervised post-graduate students in the Department of Mathematics.
