Amir is a PhD candidate in Civil Engineering at the ßÉßɱ¬ÁÏ, with a research focus on indoor air quality. His current work centers on wildfire smoke infiltration in buildings and evaluating the effectiveness of various interventions to improve indoor air during smoke events. For the research, air quality data is being recorded by 120 sensors deployed across diverse building types in Victoria, BC, and Edmonton, AB, in Canada, enabling monitoring of indoor and outdoor pollution levels.

Amir holds a background in Mechanical Engineering, where he developed a strong foundation in thermofluid sciences and deepened his expertise in building science and energy systems. His MSc thesis, titled “Feasibility Study of Integrated Energy, Water, and Agricultural Production Using Recovered Waste Heat: A Multigeneration Approach for a Combined Cycle Power Plant in Kerman, Iran,” reflects his interdisciplinary approach to sustainable system design.
