Luiza Campos, PhD in Environmental Engineering

About

I am a civil engineer with a PhD in environmental engineering by Imperial College and a MSc in Hydraulics and Sanitation by University of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Before moving into academia, I worked for 10 years in a state water utility in Brazil where she gained practical experience on operation and maintenance of large scale urban water and wastewater systems susceptible to high rainfall, leakage, and drought. Later, she worked as a lecturer at the Federal University of Goias in Goiania, Brazil, for 10 years. I moved to the UK in 2006 and I am currently a Senior Lecturer in Environmental Engineering at the Department of Civil, Environmental & Geomatic Engineering of University College London. At UCL I am involved in teaching, research and enabling activities. I am also the Departmental Equal Opportunities Liaison Officer and have recently led the departmental Athena Swan application which granted the department a Bronze Award for advancing gender equality practice. My research lies within water and sanitation focusing on designing, implementation and evaluation of technologies/interventions to reduce environmental pollution and human exposure to a range of hazards.
