Dr Mosleh Tohidi is a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of West London, UK. He received his BEng, MSc and PhD at the University of Urmia (Tehran) and the University of Birmingham in 1994, 1999 and 2015 respectively. He is a member of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE). His research interest is the optimization of concrete structures, climate change, progressive collapse, finite element analysis, structural performance/analysis and innovative concrete floor systems. So far, he has been responsible to design more than 350,000m2 of various steel/concrete structures.

Teaching

Our main goal is to make a bridge between taught theory in the universities and industry requirements. We connect students who are aiming to improve their skills at academic and professional levels with aid academic and industry experience.
We will help students to improve their understanding of the concepts and problem-solving ability, increase their confidence, accelerate their learning by focusing on theoretical methods along with practical structural analysis/design and be able to play a significant role as engineers in their professional careers using the following steps:
