MOHAMMAD AHMADSHAHI M.ARCH / M.SC IN HEALTHCARE DESIGN INTRODUCTION
EDUCATION
After acquiring the M. Arch degree in healthcare facilities design, I started my journey at Clemson University as a Ph.D. student and after 2 years I found myself leaning towards a designoriented career more than research. I transitioned into a Master of Science degree in the Architecture + Health program and expect to graduate by May 2022.
Clemson University – M.S IN ARCHITECTURE (ARCHITECTURE + HEALTH program) Advisor: Anjali Joseph, Ph.D., EDAC Endowed Chair in Architecture + Health Design and Research Thesis title: U.S. Army Medical Command’s Medical Treatment Facilities’ Response to SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Research Focus Area: Pandemic Response, Resilience, Adaptability, and Implementing Change in Healthcare Facilities. GPA: 3.6 - Expected graduation date: MAY 2022
My main area of interest is modular and prefabricated architecture, and I am experienced in implementing the BIM approach into various design procedures for healthcare projects. I am looking for a position in healthcare design teams and intend to get licensed as soon as possible to follow my post-academic career goals as a professional architect.
