Biography

Ir Edwin Goh is a professional engineer (PEng) registered with the Board of Engineer Malaysia (BEM). He is a fellow member of Higher Education Academy (UK-HEA), corporate member of the Institution of Engineers Malaysia (IEM), member of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), member of Chartered Institution of Highways & Transportation (CIHT), member of Road Engineering Association of Malaysia (REAM) and HRDF Certified trainer in Malaysia. Ir Edwin Goh is an active member in IEM and is elected as the secretary cum treasurer of Highway and Transportation Engineering Technical Division in IEM (IEM-HTETD).

He completed his Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education (PGCHE) in 2012 from University of Nottingham and received his MSc in Highway and Transportation Engineering and BEng in Civil Engineering (Hons.), both from Universiti Putra Malaysia, in 2005 and 2001, respectively.

Prior to joining Nottingham, he was with Universiti Industri Selangor (2004-2006), INTI College Subang Jaya (2002-2004), Prime College (2004) and ITJ Kolej (2004), responsible as lecturer; and as Research Associate from Road Safety Research Centre, Universiti Putra Malaysia (2001-2002).

He joined Nottingham in 2006 as the pioneer team to setting-up the School of Civil Engineering and currently he is the senior academic staff teaching the transportation engineering related modules. His teaching evaluations have been highly ranked by all students from various academic institutions.He is one of the recipients for Chancellor Award 2012 and Vice Chancellor Medal 2018, awarded by University of Nottingham, in recognition of contributions made to the quality of teaching in School of Civil Engineering, as well as achievement in professional outreach. He is also the Silver Medal winner in UPM Design and Research Exhibition 2003, organised by Universiti Putra Malaysia; and his undergraduate thesis was selected as the best final year project, awarded with "Hadiah Perunding Bakti".
