INSTITUTE OF WATER MODELLING

Academic Chronology

Mr. Md. Abu Hena Mostofa Kamal completed his graduation in Civil Engineering from Rajshahi University of Engineering and Technology (RUET) in May 2009.

Professional Track Record

Mr. Md. Abu Hena Mostofa Kamal has been working in IWM since January 2011. Before joining in Research and Development Unit of IWM, he worked at Survey and Data Division for about 7 years and gathered immense experience in topographic and hydrographic survey, hydrological and hydro-metrological data collection, processing and analysis, drafting and survey report writing, conducted computational works in connection with dredging of different rivers in Bangladesh. He started his carrier as a Junior Geotechnical Engineer at Dev Consultants (DevCon) Ltd, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
