Sustainable Engineering Asset Management (SEAM)

The fast-growing and changing economy of UAE and the region leads to a rapid expansion of industries and infrastructures that emphasize achieving competitive advantage and sustainable business outcomes that rely on a good economy without compromising safety, environmental and social issues. This creates the need for implementing innovative and sustainable methods that consider the various phases of the life cycle of engineering assets. Our vision is to become a regional leading research group in the field of sustainable engineering asset management. At the same time, our mission is to contribute to the development of research and higher education and services to the community in innovative and sustainable design, development, operations, maintenance, disposal, and management of engineering assets and technologies. The group's research is multidisciplinary, where researchers from different disciplines, including industrial engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer engineering, and applied statistics, pool their knowledge and expertise to solve engineering assets problems.
