Biography

Dr Ataur Rahman is a Professor in Water Engineering in Western Sydney University. He obtained his BEng (Civil) from Khulna University of Engineering and Technology (KUET) in 1982, Masters in Hydrology from National University of Ireland in 1990 and PhD from Monash University, Australia in 1997. He worked in Dhaka University of Engineering and Technology (DUET), Bangladesh Water Development Board, Sinclair Knight Merz, CRC for Catchment Hydrology and Queensland University of Technology before joining the University of Western Sydney in 2002 as a Lecturer. He has served as a Visiting Academic in Cornell University (USA), Vienna University of Technology (Austria), The University of Newcastle (Australia), Masdar Institute of Science and Technology (UAE) and University of New South Wales (Australia). He has supervised over 15 PhD and 7 Masters by Research students to successful completion. Currently, he is supervising 10 PhD students and 2 Masters by Research students. He has authored over 400 publications including 108 ISI listed journal articles. He co-developed the ARR RFFE Model, which is widely used for design flood estimation in Australia as a part of the new Australian Rainfall and Runoff (the national guide). He led the ARR Project 5 for 10 years to its successful completion. He received the G N Alexander Medal from The Institution of Engineers, Australia in 2002 for an outstanding research paper on loss modelling for design flood estimation. He was finalist for the G N Alexander Medal in year 2008 and 2014. He won the Western Sydney University's VC Excellance Awards on Higher Degree Research, Training and Supervision in 2015 and in 2017. He has completed over 15 funded research projects. He is in the editorial board of three international journals. He is the founder Chair of GCSTMR (Global Circle for Scientific, Technological and Management Research), which has organised numerous conferences around the globe. He is the frequent reviewer of over 10 top level international journals in water and environmental engineering. He is serving as the Co-Chair of Water Education and Research Committee of Australian Water Association. He is a Fellow of Engineers Australia.
