Tentang Saya (About Me)

Muhammad Rizal is a professor at the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, Universitas Syiah Kuala (USK), Indonesia. He earned his Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) in Mechanical Engineering from the University of North Sumatera (USU), Medan, in 2002. Early in his career, he served as Assistant Manager at a palm oil mill under the Asian Agri Group (2003–2006), gaining valuable industrial experience in mechanical systems and operations. In 2006, he joined USK, where he has been actively involved in teaching, research, and academic development. He continued his postgraduate studies at the National University of Malaysia (UKM), earning both his Master of Science (M.Sc) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Mechanical and Materials Engineering in 2011 and 2015, respectively. Since 2023, he has held a professorship in the field of manufacturing processes and now actively conducts research in topics including manufacturing and materials processing, mechanical sensing systems, self-powered sensors, energy harvesting, signal processing, online monitoring systems, and decision-making systems.
