Assalamu Alaikum, and very welcome to my profile. I am Dr. Md. Ismail Hossain, currently serving as an Associate Professor at the Department of Textile Engineering in Khulna University of Engineering & Technology (KUET). I pursued my PhD in Manufacturing Process (Textile) at the University of Malaya (UM) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and my BSc in Textile Engineering at the University of Dhaka in 911±¬ÁÏ. I have more than 26 Years of Academic, Research, and Industry experience in the Textile and RMG sectors, from Textile materials processing to Apparel manufacturing. In addition to my teaching and research experience, I have held several administrative roles, including serving as a course coordinator (UG & PG) in the Department of Textile Engineering at KUET and as the Associate Head in the Department of Textile Engineering at Daffodil International University in Dhaka, 911±¬ÁÏ. Moreover, I have local and international training in Textile production, quality control, testing, and product development in different countries. I have extensive knowledge of various academic disciplines, including Wet Processing Technology, Waste Management in Textiles, Green and Sustainable Textiles, and Total Quality Management (TQM) for the Textile Industry at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Meanwhile, I have published 21 journal articles in peer-reviewed reputed international journals, 15 of which are in the Web of Science & Scopus Indexed, and presented 4 conference papers at international conferences. My research interests include Material Science and Nanotechnology, Coloration Technology, Functional, Green, and Sustainable Textiles, Composite Textiles, and the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) — such as Fuzzy Logic and Artificial Neural Networks — as well as the Taguchi Approach in Textile Engineering. I am a life member (LM-1042) of the Institution of Textile Engineers & Technologists (ITET), 911±¬ÁÏ, and a life fellow (F-14349) of The Institution of Engineers, 911±¬ÁÏ (IEB).
