Teaching Portfolio

Courses designed and delivered across four institutions and three countries — integrating AI-enhanced pedagogy, simulation platforms, and formative assessment systems to prepare students for the future of construction management.

Flipped classroom model emphasizing the development and validation of generative AI tools for construction management. Students build, test, and pitch their own AI agents with startup business models.

Classic and modern risk management: risk identification, assessment, mitigation, acceptance, and transfer. Covers quality assurance, quality control, and costs of quality using ISO 31000 and PMBOK frameworks.

Directed study in modern risk management principles through case study analysis. Students apply critical thinking to research in construction social sustainability, social tolerance, and carrying capacity — including systematic literature review, data collection, analysis, writing, and reporting.

Development of risk management steps before and after signing a construction contract: risk log creation, risk assessment, risk response planning, and risk control strategies. Includes quality assurance, quality control, costs of quality, and quality management tools and methods.

Reviews emerging trends in the residential building industry. Students learn to analyze and manage trends as modern risk factors in residential construction, applying data-driven decision-making to industry developments.

Comprehensive introduction to materials, methods, and equipment in contemporary construction from a CM perspective. Strengthens foundational understanding of sustainable practices, project control, quality assurance, and reading construction specifications and drawings.

Techniques and methods of sustainable construction for the residential building industry. Students explore sustainable residential construction assessment indexing systems and apply them through case studies of sustainable material and method assessment.

Design thinking methodology applied to real job-site sustainability challenges by binational student teams from the U.S., Iraq, Egypt, and Tunisia. Students earned U.S. Department of State Alumni Certificates.

SDG-focused design thinking projects for binational student teams developing sustainable solutions to real-world construction and community challenges.

Introduces steps to transfer an idea to an award-winning product, designing postgraduate research to develop a successful spin-off. Covers technology transfer mechanisms and commercialization strategies within renewable energy and smart infrastructure.

Introduces steps to transfer an idea to an award-winning product, designing postgraduate research to develop a successful spin-off. Delivered as part of the UCSD/MIT–UTE Construction Research Center initiative. Enabled 20 peer-reviewed publications and 3 university-industry service packages.

History of PM, PM drivers and skills, monitoring and control, and problem-solving. Includes PMBOK, PMI certificates, decision-making methods (AHP, ANP, GGDM, Delphi, Brainstorming), project complexity, innovation management, and dynamic modeling.

Research design, construct development, data collection and analysis, and report writing. Highlights include Scopus citation analysis, topic selection, and research for the development of new products and services in construction.

WBS, CPM, and MSP/P6. Highlights include dynamic scheduling, n-D scheduling, and UAV applications in construction.

Basic and standard lab tests in commercial structure, with theoretical analysis of experimental error calculation for each test.
