Dr El-Nakla is an Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering at PMU and is involved with all aspects of conducting classes and laboratories for undergraduate university students. Dr El-Nakla earned his PhD in Intelligent Electronic design within mechatronics from the University of Abertay Dundee, United Kingdom in 2004. His PhD research work dealt with the development and implementation of a computer based system at lower level and which is used to assist in the design of electronic systems, which themselves form a part of a larger or meachtronic system.

Dr El-Nakla has some years of teaching experience in the UK and Arab world Universities. Also worked in project at RD of NCR Corporation in Scotland on testing and evaluating the transflective LCD for sunlight readable display of the autoteller machine (ATM).

 

  • 1999 - 2004 PhD degree at the University of Abertay Dundee, UK.
  • 1997-1998 MSc in electronic circuit design and manufacture from University of Dundee-UK.
  • 1984- 1989 BSc degree in electronic engineering from University of Garyounis in Libya, BSc project in filter design.
