Bio

Dr. Mamun Jamal is working as Professor at the Department of Chemistry in Khulna University of Engineering & Technology, Bangladesh. Dr. Jamal is teaching Chemistry to postgraduate (MSc, MPhil and PhD) Chemistry students and undergraduate Engineering students in KUET. He has joined in KUET on 2015 as an Assistant Professor, became associate professor in 2020 and professor in 2022. Before that he was working as Research Scientist at Tyndall National Institute, in Ireland. Mamun Jamal obtained BSc and MSc in Chemistry from the University of Dhaka and PhD from the University of Limerick, Ireland. He is a recipient of EU full bright scholarship for PhD programme at the University of Limerick in the area of Biosensor Development for Steroid Detection. He then continued his career as Postdoctoral Fellow at ITT, Dublin for 2 years, and as Research Scientist in Tyndall, Cork for further 4 years. Currently Mamun Jamal is leading a group comprises of 1 PhD, 2 RA, 5 MSc and 4 final year students, in the area of electrochemistry and catalysis. Prof. Jamal is a founder of a start-up 'Microplastics Solution Ltd' funded by ICT Ministry and Ministry of Science & Technology, Bangladesh.
