Dr. Rashid Bashir is an Associate Professor of Geotechnical/Geoenvironmental engineering in the Department of Civil Engineering at Lassonde School of Engineering, York University. He earned his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario with specialization in contaminant hydrogeology and computational mechanics. Dr. Bashir has more than 20 years of experience in areas of Unsaturated Soils Mechanics, Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, Mine & Contaminant Hydrogeology and Computational Mechanics.Before Joining York University, Dr. Bashir worked as a senior geotechnical engineer with Golder Associates in their Saskatoon office. He was a member of Golder's Unsaturated Soils Group. Dr. Bashir was mostly involved in numerical aspects of unsaturated flow and transport. He has designed a number of soil covers for tailings management facilities and landfills around the world. He was also involved in performance evaluation of soil covers and has designed a number of soil cover test plots for performance monitoring. During his time at Golder Associates, Dr. Bashir was recipient of Collaborating for Success Award and Golder Excellence Award.Before joining Golder Dr. Bashir worked as Corporate Mine Hydrogeologist for Cameco Corporation in Saskatoon, SK. Apart from providing hydrogeology support to operations in Northern Saskatchewan, he was also engaged in dewatering of the Cameco's flooded Cigar Lake Mine and shaft no. 2. Dr. Bashir also provided hydrogeology support to Cameco's corporate development group for potential acquisitions around the globe. He has also testified in front of Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission as a subject matter expert. Dr. Bashir has considerable project management experience and has managed large and complex mining projects. He is also a qualified Safety, Health, Environment and Quality (SHEQ) auditor and a TapRooT® investigator. Dr. Bashir is a registered professional engineer in the provinces of Saskatchewan and Ontario.Dr. Bashir has taught graduate and undergraduate courses in Geotechnical and Geo-environmental Modelling, Fluid Mechanics, Advanced Design of Earth Structures, Vadose Zone Flow and Transport, Contaminant Hydrogeology and Environmental Geotechnics. Dr. Bashir’s current research focusses on effect of climate change on geotechnical and geo-environmental designs. His research is funded by grants from Nuclear Waste Management Origination (NWMO), Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) and Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) of Canada.
