Biography

In July 2014, Roozbeh commenced working as a Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) specialist at the Centre for Disaster Management and Public Safety (CDMPS). Roozbeh's research will focus on quantifying the flood risks and performing a flood damage assessment for a case study area within Australia. With this knowledge, mitigation of the risks could occur for the future flood scenarios. The outcome of this research will be substantial for disaster management decision-makers and insurance companies. This work will contribute to the current Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC (BNHCRC) project which aims to identify optimum economic policy options to recover or minimise the adverse effects of natural hazards.

Roozbeh obtained his M.Sc. from Politecnico di Milano, Milan-Italy in Civil Engineering for Risk Mitigation (CERM) programme. His rank and the position in the cohort was first, and he finished his M.Sc. by GPA 110 out of 110. The title of his M.Sc. thesis was “Flood Damage Assessment with the Help of HEC-FIA Model”.
