Myself Amjad Ali Amjad, belongs to Skardu, a beautiful city in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. I adopted technical education as per my interest right from the start of my education career. During the young age, I was fond of different electronic and technological devices which were use in the daily life as they diverted my attention towards their application. I was used to dismantle those devices with the screw driver to understand their working principle. Since then, I knew the advantages of engineering and I preferred this field for my career. I received the B.S. degree (Hons.) in computer systems engineering from the University of Engineering and Technology (UET), Peshawar, Pakistan, in 2014, the M.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Lahore, Islamabad, Pakistan, in 2017. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. degree in Marine Information Science and Engineering from Ocean College, Zhejiang University.
I found that Ocean College is a better place to study. All the professors have good experience in respective field, very open and always ready to help us. The faculties here are really helpful. I always feels that the Ocean College is like a second home, I never feel like I have been living away from my home, because it just people here are so nice. I got an opportunity to talk with people of different countries, know their cultures in china. Ocean College, Zhejiang University organized culture shows and new year festival in which I got opportunity to the represent my country, my cultures and myself. I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to study in Ocean College.
Time flies in the twinkling of an eye, and my four-year PhD study is coming to an end. Undertaking this PhD has been a truly life-changing experience for me, and at this moment, I would like to express my particular and deepest gratitude to Ocean College, Zhejiang University and Optical Communications Laboratory for providing me with the platform and opportunity to continue my study in an enjoyable atmosphere. I have published two SCI and two EI research papers as a first author and several papers as a co-author in reputed journals. I have presented my research work at the two International Conferences in 2019 and 2020. I am an active member of the International student organization of Ocean College and participated in all activities organized by the college. After my graduation I will continue post doctorate in Ocean College, Zhejiang university under the supervision of Professor. Jing Xu. My moto is “Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle.” My hobbies are web searching, reading books and playing football.
