Brief about me

Professor Akeem Ayinde Raheem was born on June 3, 1963, in the city of Lagos. His educational adventure started in Lagos in Progressive Primary School Surulere, as a pupil.  He obtained B.Sc. (Honours) in Building from the University of Ife (Now Obafemi Awolowo University), Ile Ife in 1987 before proceeding to the University of Lagos, Akoka where he obtained M.Sc. (Construction Technology) in 1996 and then Ph.D. (Building Structures) in 2006 from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife. He started his career as a Graduate Assistant in the Department of Civil Engineering, LAUTECH, Ogbomoso in 1992 and rose through the ranks and files of academic cadre to becoming a Professor of Building in the Department of Civil Engineering on October 1, 2013. His wealth of experience was built from various positions and capacities that he had served within and outside the university campus. Principally, he has served as the Ag. Head, Civil Engineering Department; Departmental Examination Officer, Departmental Postgraduate Programmes Coordinator; Chairman, University Scholarship Committee; Member, Board of Postgraduate School and Deputy Dean, Faculty of Engineering and Technology amongst others. He has served as External Examiner and Professorial Assessor to many Universities within and outside Nigeria. He has attended and presented papers at both local and international professional conferences.

As an active researcher and project leader, he has led some funded research and has more than eighty (80) articles in reputable journals to his credit. He has successfully supervised Six (6) Ph.D. theses, fourteen (14) M. Tech. dissertations and over 500 B. Tech. Students' projects while many are on-going. He is a Corporate Member, Nigerian Institute of Building, and a Fully Registered Builder with CORBON. He is currently the Head, Building Department, Team Leader, Cement and Concrete (CEMCON) Research Group, and Chairman, Board of Entrepreneurship Development Centre, LAUTECH, Ogbomoso.
