My time at Engro Powergen Thar allowed me to learn beyond the electrical domain. I explored the chemical processes involved in coal combustion and emission control, as well as the mechanical systems that drive the plant's operations, such as turbines and boilers.I concentrated on understanding a wide range of instruments used in the plant, including flow meters, pressure sensors, and temperature transmitters. I learned about their applications, maintenance, and critical role in ensuring plant safety and efficiency.

Served as the treasurer of IEEE Habib University Student Branch's Treasurer.

I worked on the "Origami-Inspired Multi-Type Locomotive Planetary Exploration Robot." The project involved building and constructing an autonomous multimodal locomotive origami robot for space exploration. The Arduino microcontroller was used to control the robot. I also gave a poster presentation on the project at the SURF symposium.

As an OBE Teacher Assistant (TA), I performed a critical role in ensuring the effective implementation of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) practises at Habib University. This post entailed creating thorough OBE reports for each course taken by electrical and computer engineering (ECE) students. As an OBE TA, I rigorously analysed data pertaining to student performance, course results, and assessment procedures, and used this information to develop accurate and insightful reports that provide useful insights into the success of the curriculum and instructional tactics. I worked closely with faculty members, instructional staff, and other stakeholders to ensure the timely completion of these reports, ultimately improving the overall quality of education in the ECE department.

The event served as a global gathering, uniting teams from around the world to confront multifaceted global challenges from a diverse range of perspectives. Our team, "FinDeisel," stood out by winning the initial round at Habib University and securing a place in the global finals. We also won the 2nd position on the international stage, a true testament to our dedication, collaborative spirit, and relentless hard work.Our project, "FinDiesel," introduces an innovative portable kit set to revolutionize the fishing industry in Pakistan and other developing nations. This visionary concept revolves around repurposing fish waste into biodiesel, effectively offsetting fuel costs for fishing boats. By empowering fishermen and individuals to convert fish waste into a sustainable energy source, our kit paves the way for self-sufficiency, not only propelling boats but also energizing various appliances. This endeavor reflects our unwavering commitment to fostering sustainability and propelling positive change within industries and communities.

Served as the IEEE Habib University General Secretary. I helped run the club and organize local events and talks related to ECE and Graduate school.
