Zuhaib A. Shaikh

Welcome To My Profile Site

I am originally from Shikarpur but was born in Nawabshah and completed my primary and secondary education at Apwa School, Govt. Boys School and Shah Arfi Sharif Grammar High School Nawabshah. After that, I continued my education at Govt. Degree Boys College, Nawabshah, where I became eligible for graduation.

I yearned to be a scientist since I was a kid, and thus I did study Computers, and I have a good grasp of its many complexities and particularities, which is why I consider it the most interesting engineering field I could hope to understand.

Following my ambitions and immense interest in computer engineering, I chose it as the area of specialization for my undergraduate and postgraduate studies. After completing my bachelor's and master's studies, I started working as Assistant Professor in Computer Systems Engineering Department at Quaid-e-Awam Engineering University, Nawabshah.

By observing the vastness of my chosen field of study, I feel to enhance my dexterities to be in line with current research and development. As a researcher, I find it particularly incumbent to acquire more professional skills, expertise and research experience to effectively contribute to the selected field. Therefore, I decided to go further with my studies and started my PhD in the Image Processing and Interpretation research group at Ghent University, Belgium.
