Instructor · PhD Candidate · Developer

Hi, I'm Serdar.

I hold a Master's degree in Structural Engineering and am currently pursuing a PhD in the same field at Yıldız Technical University.

I work as an Instructor in the Civil Engineering department at Bursa Technical University, where I teach steel structures, computer-aided design, and programming for engineers.

In my spare time, I build cross-platform applications for CAD, FEM and AEM analysis — the desktop, web and mobile tools that make structural simulation easier to reach.
