Biography
Professor Sinan Acikgoz is an Associate Professor of Engineering Science and the David Foster Fellow at Mansfield College. He completed his undergraduate studies at the Middle East Technical University before earning his PhD from Trinity College, University of Cambridge. Prior to joining Oxford, he was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Cambridge’s Centre for Smart Infrastructure and Construction (CSIC) and held an 1851 Brunel Research Fellowship. His research addresses problems across mechanics of materials, structural health monitoring, structural engineering, and heritage science.
