Water and Environment Conservation Research Center (WAEC)
The Water and Environment Conservation Research Center (WECRC) is dedicated to advancing research and development in water conservation and environmental protection. The center works towards creating sustainable solutions that address global water challenges and contribute to the long-term well-being of ecosystems and communities.
Research Groups
Materials for Energy Applications
Materials for Energy Applications research line aims to develop high-performing structural and functional materials for efficient, reliable, and cost-effective photo(electro)chemical energy conversion and energy storage devices. The members of this research line are also focused on multi-scale simulation and modeling including in situ characterization techniques for investigating characteristics of various advanced materials for energy storage and conversion devices. The goal at the end is to perform advanced research to resolve vital issues relevant to sustainable intends in the energy field.
Organometallics Chemistry
The Organometallics research line aims at tackling problems arising from fundamental and applied concepts. The prototypes resulting from laboratory research in environmental, energy, forensic science, and medical nanoengineering can be commercialized. The concepts and prospects have directly benefited in developing technologies for latent fingerprints, drug delivery, solar cells, sensors, energy storage and conversion devices. The outcome is evident from a significant increase in the number of high-quality publications and featured journal covers from the group. The investigations on the elegant organometallic gold nanoparticles have catalyzed the growing field of nanotechnology and its wide applications. The research line extends to design and investigate catalytically relevant MOFs for green hydrogen generation, complexes mediating challenging bond-forming reactions and perovskites solar cells for efficient photon to current conversion.
Materials for Environmental Applications
The aim of the Materials for environmental and biological applications research line is to develop innovative materials for environmental applications that can contribute to sustainability and environmental protection. We strive to conduct cutting-edge research that addresses current environmental challenges and provides solutions that are practical, efficient, and cost-effective. We aim to develop a wide range of materials that can be used for various environmental applications, such as water and air purification, waste management, public health safety monitoring and protection, and renewable energy production.
Advanced Magnetic Materials
Magnetic materials offer a plethora of functional properties that are not only of fundamental interest but are essential for the development of new technological applications. The aim of the group is to build a strong experimental research environment dedicated to the investigation of the electronic properties of a broad range of magnetic materials and phenomena. The research line will develop experimental and theoretical knowledge on magnetic materials in particular when placed under extreme conditions such as high pressures, low temperatures and high magnetic fields. A special interest will be given to material relevant to energy applications.
Information and Network Security Research Group
The center carries research in information security to help governmental organizations and local institutions to protect their information infrastructure from cyber attacks. More specifically, the center will work with organizations to identify threats.
Sustainable Construction Materials and Structural Systems (SCMASS)
The Sustainable Construction Materials and Structural Systems (SCMASS) group at the University of Sharjah, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, is a focused group composed of accomplished faculty members with research interests in the area of sustainable and novel construction materials and structural systems. The group is committed to undertaking impactful research for the benefit of the local and international community.
Sustainable Civil Infrastructure Systems (SCIS)
The Sustainable Civil Infrastructure Systems (SCIS) Research Group was established to provide an umbrella for infrastructure research in the areas of Construction Management, Water Resources engineering, Transportation, Pavement, and Geotechnical engineering applications in Civil Engineering with a focus on sustainable development.
Sustainable Engineering Asset Management (SEAM)
