Biography


Dr. Mohamed Ismail received his bachelor’s degree in Electrical Power and Machine Engineering from Zagazig University in 1999. Then he got his master’s degree in Engineering Physics in 2007 from Zagazig University as well. He received his PhD in Nuclear Engineering from Kansas State University (KSA) at the United States of America in 2015. He worked as an Engineering Sciences’ Module Leader at the University of Hertfordshire in Egypt for two years.

Before that he was a full-time assistant professor at the College of Engineering, Zagazig University in addition to Misr International University (MIU) as an adjunct assistant professor. Dr. Ismail also served as an assistant director for the Projects’ Management Unit and a director for the Entrepreneurship Club at Zagazig University. Before that Dr. Ismail worked as a teaching/research assistant at Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering Department at Kansas State University- USA. 

Dr. Ismail is a well-known physics instructor in the middle east. His YouTube Channel is followed by thousands of students. Last year he won the You Tube Silver Button for exceeding a 100K followers.
