Biography

Dr. Sanjib Sharma is an assistant professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Howard University in Washington, DC. He holds a PhD degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University. His research analyzes two interrelated questions: (i) How can we advance a predictive understanding of multiscale, multisector impacts, responses, and feedbacks of hydroclimatic extremes? and  (ii) How can we use this improved understanding of risk to inform hazard management, water resources planning and critical infrastructure design? He addresses these questions through interdisciplinary research at the interface of engineering, Earth science and data science.
