Dr Juliana Haji Zaini has a doctoral degree in Civil (Geotechnical) Engineering who has recently graduated from Queen’s University Belfast, UK (2012). Her broad knowledge of the main disciplines within civil engineering, current research studies, the urban development and sustainable development affords her a unique position and flexibility to work in a multidisciplinary setting. She has now joined Faculty of Integrated Technologies in Universiti Brunei where she is working on Systems Engineering as well as Chemical and Process Engineering. Her area of teaching includes Computer Aided Engineering and Engineering Design Spine. She aims to propose a new module that offers engineering students on how to produce and structure technical reports, collect data and plot experimental graphs, use proper referencing and presenting work via slides and/or posters. She also took an active interest in participating seminars and current research. Her research interests are on soil modeling and numerical analysis, renewable energies and environmental engineering. Her research area of expertise covers area of unsaturated soils, soil mineralogy, soil structure and stringent experimental testing. She has been conferred with numerous awards such as best presentation paper award at IACT Joint Conferences 2015, the ‘ICE N.I Geotechnics Award’, ‘The Hugh Turtle Prize in Civil Engineering’ in 2009 and awarded as top five research work during YGES 2012.
