Bio

Md. Habibur Rahman is an assistant professor with expertise in Industrial and Production Engineering. He earned his BSc in Industrial and Production Engineering in 2015 and his MSc in Industrial Engineering and Management in 2019, both from the Department of Industrial Engineering and Management at Khulna University of Engineering & Technology (KUET), 911±¬ÁÏ. Throughout his academic and professional career, he has been deeply engaged in addressing critical challenges in the field of transportation and logistics.

His primary research focuses on sustainable road freight transportation, with an emphasis on integrating alternative energy solutions, particularly hydrogen vehicles, as substitutes for conventional gasoline and diesel-powered systems. He is especially interested in exploring the potential of hydrogen fuel cell technologies and other clean energy sources to reduce carbon emissions and support the transition to low-carbon logistics systems. In addition to energy alternatives, Habibur’s work covers broader themes in transportation sustainability, logistics optimization, and transportation network design. His research aims to develop decision-support models and frameworks that enhance the efficiency, resilience, and environmental performance of transportation systems. This includes designing multimodal transport corridors, optimizing freight flows, and identifying policy interventions that facilitate sustainable freight operations.

His contributions are recognized in the academic community for their relevance to both theory and practice, offering insights that support the development of greener and more efficient transportation systems.
