He spent five years (1984–1989) in Southampton, UK, pursuing postgraduate studies leading to a Ph.D. from the School of Electronics and Computer Science, University of Southampton. Later, he completed a one-year Postdoctoral Fellowship at the same university during 2007–2008.

For twelve years, he served as a Guest Scientist/Associate at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Trieste, Italy, under the UNESCO/UNU umbrella. During this period, he visited ICTP eight times, spending a total of over 18 months attending international workshops and conducting collaborative research in advanced laboratories across Italy.

He has delivered keynote lectures and represented Pakistan at high-level academic events in Italy, UK, Ireland, USA, France, Germany, Malaysia, China, Singapore, Pakistan, Spain, Cyprus, Norway, Bahrain, UAE, Thailand, and Switzerland.

He was awarded prestigious Erasmus Mundus Visiting Fellowships at the University of Aalborg, Denmark (2010), the University of Limerick, Ireland (2013), and City University London, UK (2017).

He played a leading role in four major Erasmus Mundus exchange programs — Mobility for Life, STRoNG-TiES, INTACT, and LEADERS — all aimed at enhancing global collaboration in engineering education and research. Additionally, five more EU-funded International Credit Mobility (ICM) projects were approved under his leadership, supporting short-term staff mobilities and six-month student exchange opportunities for Master’s and PhD students.

Across these nine projects, over 200 undergraduate, postgraduate, and PhD students, as well as MUET faculty and staff, benefited from fully funded scholarships ranging from 3 months to 3 years.
