Dr. Rizwan Hussain is currently serving as a Faculty Member in the Department of Industrial Chemistry, Aligarh Muslim University (AMU). He obtained his M.Sc. in Industrial Chemistry in 2012 and completed his Ph.D. in Applied Chemistry in 2017 from AMU. His doctoral research focused on the synthesis and vapor sensing applications of synthetic composite ionomers.
He qualified the prestigious Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE-2012) in Chemistry with an All India Rank (AIR) of 973. He was also awarded the highly competitive Maulana Azad National Fellowship (MANF) by the University Grants Commission, Government of India, for both Junior and Senior Research Fellowships (2013–2017).
With more than seven years of teaching and research experience, Dr. Hussain has taught a wide range of courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels in Industrial Chemistry and Vocational Programs. He has also supervised numerous M.Voc. dissertations and M.Sc. projects.
Dr. Hussain has published a number of research papers in internationally reputed journals (RSC, Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, IOP Science) and presented his work at various national and international conferences. His recent contributions include the development of nanocomposites for selective heavy metal ion detection, electrochemical biosensors for medical diagnostics, and eco-friendly nanomaterials for environmental remediation.
He has also been actively involved in academic events, serving as Co-Convener of the National Conference on New Vistas in Industrial Chemistry (2024) and an Organizing Committee Member of the International Conference on New Vistas in Industrial Chemistry (2023) at AMU.
Beyond research and teaching, Dr. Hussain is proficient in advanced analytical instrumentation and material characterization techniques, and has a keen interest in promoting eco-friendly, sustainable, and application-oriented research in industrial and applied chemistry.
