Expert Profile


Dr. Syamsul Bahrin from the International Baccalaureate Programme conducted in Mara College Banting, Selangor in 1994 pursued his Bachelor's degree in Electromechanical Power Engineering in the UK. Upon graduation, he started his career as a process engineer at Texas Instruments (TI) Malaysia Sdn Bhd, Kuala Lumpur in 1997.
His major responsibility is optimization of the process and improvement of equipment within the Texas Instrument Radio Identification System (TIRIS) processes. In 2000, his responsibility was changed to manage the manufacturing processes within the same area. Seeing IT application to be booming in 2004, Dr. Syamsul Bahrin pursued his Master in System Engineering with Information Technology Application to cater to the need for System Engineering within TI.
However, upon completion of his Master a career path change was made into the academia, which landed him in International Islamic University (IIUM) as a lecturer in 2007. After two years of lecturing, he pursued his Ph.D at the University of Strathclyde in the field of Air-Coupled Ultrasonic Sensors. Currently, he is attached as an Assistant Professor to the Department of Mechatronics Engineering, and is the Head of Department for Department of Mechatronics Engineering. Prior he is the coordinator for the Kulliyyaah Programme Accreditation and Quality Assurance Unit and Mahallah's Principal. He is also actively involved as an internal auditor for ISO 9001:2015 and MS1900 Shariah based Quality Management System for the university.
