AUS faculty member receives Arab Researchers Award

A faculty member from American University of Sharjah (AUS) was awarded the Arab Researchers Award by the Abdul Hameed Shoman Foundation (AHSF) recently in Amman, Jordan.

Dr. Mohammad Jaradat, Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at AUS College of Engineering, was awarded for his research contributions in the area of robotics and intelligent systems within the engineering field. A total of 194 candidates from universities and scientific institutions submitted their contributions for the award in different fields and specializations.

"It was a great delight for me to receive this award," said Dr. Jaradat. "I am particularly pleased that my efforts, research work and contribution within robotics and intelligent systems have been recognized. I hope that such awards will always be stepping stones for all researchers in the Arab world. I appreciate the support and encouragement from all," he added.

The AHSF was launched in 1982 and devoted its efforts to supporting scientific research through its patronage of the work of the young generation of scientists by publishing their research and by awarding annual prizes as a means of motivation.
