Learning through inquiry

Teaching.

Connecting transportation theory, analytical methods, and real urban challenges in an inclusive learning environment.

Teaching across three universities

From engineering fundamentals to advanced mobility research.

Dr. Sk. Md. Mashrur has taught undergraduate and postgraduate civil engineering courses at BUET, the University of Toronto, and Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology. His course record spans transport planning, public transportation, simulation, engineering computation, design, surveying, mechanics, and professional practice.

At the University of Toronto, he served as Course Instructor for CIV531 Transport Planning in 2023 and as a Teaching Assistant from 2019 to 2023. He has taught at BUET since joining its faculty in 2016.

Teaching approach

Learning that moves between theory and practice.

Active learning

Flipped classrooms, brainstorming, group discussion, computing sessions, and laboratory work keep students involved.

Inclusive design

Universal Design for Learning principles help students with different experiences and abilities participate fully.

Applied tools

MATSim, VISSIM, and EMME connect network theory to assignments, scenario analysis, and real policy questions.

Thoughtful assessment

Bloom's taxonomy informs course design, assignments, quizzes, and feedback that support deeper learning.
