Dr. Olanrewaju Muheeb Ahmed

I am a committed researcher and educator with extensive expertise in electronic engineering and communication systems. I completed my PhD in Electronic Engineering at the University of York, specializing in Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication, alongside strong research interest in emerging technologies like Digital Twin, 5G & 6G networks, IoT, network security and autonomous vehicles.

With a robust academic foundation, including a BSc in Electrical & Electronic Engineering from Olabisi Onabanjo University and an MSc in Electronic Communication and Computer Engineering from the University of Nottingham, I have contributed significantly to both academia and industry for over a decade. I have held roles such as Lecturer at Kwara State University, Research Lead at Veracity Trust Network, and Network Consultant at the Joint Admissions Matriculation Board (JAMB), where I honed my technical skills in data networking, cybersecurity, and systems optimization.

Currently a Lecturer in Systems Network and IoT at The Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology, I am involved in designing and delivering innovative teaching practices, curriculum development, and research in advanced engineering disciplines. My affiliations include a Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA), and memberships in IEEE and the Nigerian Society of Engineers. I have authored multiple published works focused on vehicular networks, resource allocation, and wireless communication systems.

My attraction to the Dyson Institute stemmed primarily from its unwavering commitment towards revolutionising engineering pedagogy, while driving innovation and technology. The Institute’s multi-disciplinary and vertical research and project development approach which cuts across Dyson’s industrial strides is of particular appeal, as it promises opportunities to apply my expertise in IoT and networking across a diverse spectrum of initiatives, thereby contributing to the creation of cutting-edge products. Furthermore, the prospect of engaging in teaching and mentorship initiatives to cultivate future engineering talent was highly compelling. My extensive industry experience in networking further reinforced my belief that I could help students bridge the gap between theory and practical, while making valuable contributions to Dyson's network-related initiatives and contribute to enhancing connectivity aspects within our innovative product portfolio. Since joining, I have been exposed to even more opportunities to contribute towards reforming Engineering pedagogy and understand better how to engage with the research and development strides of Dyson at large.
