Imrose Muhit

Imrose decided to be an infrastructural engineer and researcher more than a decade ago when he realised that there aren’t many engineering fields where what you build will likely still be standing after leaving this earth. His passion for research, teaching and collaboration urged him to be an academic.

Imrose started his academic career at Teesside University as a Lecturer in January 2023. In his role, he is actively contributing to teaching, research, knowledge exchange, enterprise and business engagement in the School of Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies. Prior to this role, he worked as a Postdoctoral researcher at the University of Leeds (UK) and the University of Newcastle, Australia. He was involved in projects funded by UKRI EPSRC and Australian Research Council. He was also actively involved in teaching structural mechanics modules at the University of Newcastle, Australia.

Imrose authored more than 30 high-impact scientific articles in his research fields which are published in various international journals and conferences. A list of publications is available on Google Scholar and ResearchGate. He is volunteering as a Reviewer for several top scientific journals published by Springer Nature, Elsevier and MDPI. 

Imrose's main research and teaching interests embrace, but are not limited to, the following areas:

• contemporary and ageing masonry infrastructures
• reliability and safety assessment
• stochastic numerical modelling
• sustainable and low-carbon construction materials
• smart inspection, monitoring, intervention and restoration of architectural heritage infrastructures by using digital and smart technologies.

Imrose is involved with an EPSRC-funded £1.8 million research project, Exploiting the Resilience of Masonry Arch Bridge Infrastructure (ERMABI) with a group of researchers from University of Leeds, University of Sheffield and Imperial College London.
