== Courses ==
I am a graduate of the Masters of Engineering program at [http://www.queensu.ca/ Queen's University] with four years of experience in the field of solar energy. My studies focused on primarily on solar thermal systems, solar PV systems, policy development, data acquisition and instrumentation devices, energy modeling and sustainability in business practice. I have also acquired experience with feasibility studies analyzing both technical and financial viability of projects.
I have completed or am presently enrolled in the following courses for my graduate program:
*MECH 831 Convective Heat Transfer
*MECH 864 Engineering Analysis
*MPA 877 Energy Policy
*SURP 855 Environmental Policy and Management
*[http://www.appropedia.org/Mech425 MECH 425 Engineering for Sustainable Development]
*MECH 455 Computer Integrated Manufacturing


A full list of courses I have taken throughout my post-secondary studies can be found here: [[A.Shahed Full Course List]]
Currently I am working with Honeywell Building Solutions as an HVAC Designer, implementing building automation systems for that aim to drive energy savings and meet customer requirements.


== Background ==
Outside of my professional work, most of my time is dedicated to working with Engineers Without Borders (Canada). Currently I am working with the Toronto Professional Chapter as the VP of Marketing & Communications. Previous to this role, I co-lead Toronto's Run to End Poverty 2011.
I completed my undergraduate studies at [http://www.queensu.ca/ Queen's University] in 2008 and proceeded to enroll in their graduate program. Much of my time since has been dedicated to studying solar thermal systems, specifically solar domestic hot water and solar assisted geothermal systems.  


Prior to university I attended schooling in both Canada and Bangladesh. After completing my masters program I would like to work in the field of international development and utilize my skills to provide education, engineering and aid to underprivileged societies.
