I have been a faculty member in the Department of Geology since October 2015. I joined the department right after finishing my PhD from Indiana University in Bloomington, IN, USA.
The title of my PhD dissertation was "Thermal and Tectonic History of east-central Maine: Insights from 40Ar/39Ar Geochronology" and it was supervised by Prof. Robert Wintsch.
Before being a faculty member at JU, I was a student for almost 7 years as I got my BSc. in Environmental and Applied Geology from the University of Jordan in June, 2006 and my MSc. in Geology in January, 2009. My master thesis was entitled: Petrology, Geochemistry, and Thermobarometry of the Contact Aureole in the Saramuj Conglomerate, SE Dead Sea, Jordan; and the thesis was supervised by Prof. Dr. Ghaleb H Jarrar.
My teaching and research are mainly in the fields of hard rocks petrology, their mineralogy, and the application of Ar-Ar geochronology in revealing thermal and tectonic hostories of the rocks I am studying.
