Summary of Profile
Dr. Olufunmilayo Joseph received her B.Eng. and M.Eng. degrees in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering from the Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria. She has a Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering with a bias in mechanical and process metallurgy. She is a registered engineer and a member of several professional bodies related to her discipline.
Her research interests include: failure analysis of engineering components; fracture mechanics and structural integrity; corrosion science and engineering; alloy development and processing; materials characterization; modeling and simulation of materials; tribological studies; environmental science and engineering, amongst others. She has keen interest in solving industrial problems and structural integrity issues using diverse failure analysis tools.
She started her academic carrier as a lecturer in Mechanical Engineering at Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), Nigerian Air Force Base in Kaduna. She is currently a lecturer and astute researcher in Mechanical Engineering and its related fields at Covenant University. She thrives on the path of excellence possible for women in science, technology, mathematics and engineering (STEM). She is happily married and blessed with children.
