Ir. Dr Mohd Shukry Abdul Majid is an Associate Professor at the School of Mechatronic Engineering, Universiti Malaysia Perlis. He received his Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineeringfrom the University Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST) in 2001. Upon his return to Malaysia, he worked as a research and development (R&D) Engineer at a semiconductor industry before joining Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) as a Lecturer in 2004. He completed his M.Sc. in Mechanical Systems Engineering from the University of Liverpool in 2005 and his Ph.D. in Composite Engineering from Newcastle University, UK, in 2011. An advocate of interdisciplinary research, his research interests are composite piping, looking at the performance of composite structures, NDE’s of composites and natural fibre/green composites, hybrid reinforced/filled polymer composites, lignocellulosic reinforced/filled polymer and biodegradable composites. He has authored 149 Scopus indexed publications with 32 publications in ISI-ranked journals. Ir. Dr Mohd Shukry has been honoured with numerous local and international awards for his achievements including ITEX, MTE and PECIPTA, and is the first recipient from Technical University Network (MTUN) to have been awarded Malaysia’s Research Star Award 2017, as one of Malaysia’s most promising and influential researchers by the Ministry of High Education Malaysia (MOHE).
