Biography
Muhamad Zahim Bin Sujod was born in Selangor, Malaysia, in 1976. He received his B.Eng. and M.Eng. degrees in Electrical & Electronics Engineering from Ehime University, Japan, in 2000 and 2002, respectively, and his Ph.D. degree in Power System Engineering from the University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany, in 2014.
He has been a registered member of the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) since January 2004 and was conferred the title of Professional Engineer in January 2009. Currently, he serves as an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Electrical & Electronics Engineering Technology, Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al-Sultan Abdullah (UMP). He held the position of Deputy Dean of Research and Postgraduate Studies for about three years, where he led strategic initiatives to enhance research quality, postgraduate supervision, and industry collaboration.
Dr. Zahim’s academic supervision includes four Ph.D. graduates and four Master’s graduates as the main supervisor. He has served as leader and member of multiple research grants, with a combined total funding of RM504,400.00. His research productivity includes over 60 published articles, of which 15 are indexed in Scopus and 12 in Web of Science, with an H-index of 14. His primary research interests include renewable energy systems (particularly wind turbines and photovoltaic systems), energy conversion, energy management, and the application of machine learning in power systems.
In recognition of his contributions to academia and research, he received the Service Excellence Award in 2008 and 2017.
