Tesfaye Tessema

Tesfaye Tessema is a Lecturer in Mathematics at the School of Computing and Engineering, University of West London, where he joined as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in January 2023 and transitioned to a lectureship in March 2025. His academic journey includes research and teaching roles at the University of Bristol, University of Leeds, and Addis Ababa University, along with professional experience at the Geological Survey of Ethiopia.

Education:

• BSc in Physics, Bahir Dar University, Ethiopia (2004)
• MSc in Geodesy (Civil Engineering), Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia (2013)
• PhD in Geophysics, University of Bristol, England (2021)

His research focuses on Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) methods and their application in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) for civil and environmental engineering. He is also interested in using Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) for monitoring civil infrastructure. His work bridges applied mathematics, geophysics, and engineering, with a strong emphasis on remote sensing technologies.

While no publications are listed in the provided text, his research trajectory indicates a strong focus on remote sensing, geodetic methods, and structural monitoring applications. His work has been supported by scholarships and research fellowships, particularly during his doctoral studies.

Scientific Awards:

• Michael Dreyfus PhD Alumni Scholarship

Tesfaye has supervised and participated in research projects involving InSAR and GNSS techniques. He has served as a research assistant at the University of Leeds (2017) and the University of Bristol (2020), and as a research associate at IGSSA, Addis Ababa University (2014–2016). He also contributed to teaching as a demonstrator during his PhD. His current role includes research and academic supervision at the University of West London.

He is a member of the Faringdon Centre for Non-Destructive Testing, which supports his applied research in infrastructure monitoring and assessment.
