Fresh Graduate Chemist

Mohamed Mahmoud

I am a chemistry graduate from Al-Azhar University, where I built a strong foundation in analytical and organic chemistry. I earned a GPA of 3.2/4.0 (Very Good with Distinction). Alongside my studies, I gained hands-on experience with instruments such as HPLC, GC, atomic spectroscopy, and Karl Fischer titration. I am eager to apply my skills across industries including petroleum, petrochemicals, mining, paints, and quality assurance.

Introdction

A Chemist Driven by Curiosity

I hold a B.Sc. in Chemistry from Al-Azhar University, with a solid background in both analytical and organic chemistry. My academic journey has equipped me with strong laboratory skills, critical thinking, and a methodical approach to addressing complex challenges.

Alongside my academic training, I have developed practical expertise in operating and interpreting results from advanced laboratory instruments, including HPLC, GC, UV, IR, and atomic spectroscopy. I am also skilled in techniques such as Karl Fischer titration for moisture analysis, and in applying computer-based tools for data processing, documentation, and quality control.
