About
At first, I was study "Water Sciences and Engineering - Irrigation & Drainage Eng.", my master degree is on "Civil Engineering - Water Resources Engineering" that I simulated on the most important basin in Iran, "KAROON River Basin" to planning and maximize hydropower generation. My studies in Ph.D. course that I passed 10 years ago, was using Artificial Intelligence, in order to water quality assessing on one of the most important rivers in IRAN, which provide the major part of drinking water of TEHRAN, the capital city, included about 14,000,000 people.
After that, and during the time that I worked on Ph.D. thesis, I taught various courses in 3 universities, for about 8 years. Managing the classes with many young, noisy and full of questions students, were hard, but I did my best and well donned.
After I graduated in Ph.D. I continued teaching, and I started professional working related to mغ knowledge.
I started as an unskillful engineer from Sazgar Sazeh consultant company on water and wastewater works. I reached to project manager in 26 months that I was there. Off course it depended on my ability, effort, accuracy, coworkers support and my boss believe in me.
Then I moved to governmental part, Water Research Institute, as a subset of ministry of Energy (MOE), to start the National Water Master Plan studies. It was the first water master plan with IWRM approach which ordered by MOE and started under WRI`s supervised in Iran. I was worked in some workgroups (Hydrology and water resources, Environmental Assessment, Population and Social studies and Agriculture) to assessing the study reports which providing by 6 major water science consultant companies as the subset, Mahabghodss, Yekom, Behansadd, Abgeer, Toossab and Jamab. I was there for 1 year, and according to the suggestion of G.D. of Water and Wastewater Macro Planning Office in deputy of water and WW., I was transferred to set up a report evaluation team.
I was in that office for 8 years, then I moved to another office of deputy of Water and WW., Water Demand Management and Water and Wastewater Productivity Improvement. Coworker to providing the national documents on water resources and water supply efficiencies, also coworker in Water Scarcity adaptation Nation workgroup (WSANW) are the major dues that I did since I move here.
