I hold a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering with a specialization in Construction Management from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Motivated by a deep and enduring passion for data-driven problem-solving, I intentionally pursued a Ph.D. minor in Statistics through UW–Madison’s Department of Statistics. This combination strengthened my ability to approach complex engineering challenges with analytical precision. To further broaden my perspective, I also completed a graduate certificate in Business, Environmental, and Social Responsibility (BESR) from the Wisconsin School of Business, reflecting my commitment to integrating sustainability, ethics, and strategic thinking into the built environment. As an undergraduate, I ranked 5th out of 304 students and graduated with the highest honors in Civil Engineering. During graduate school, I maintained a cumulative GPA of 3.96/4.0.

I am currently working as a professional engineer, but prior to this, I spent over 9 years in academia—5 years as a graduate student and 4 years as a professor—teaching a variety of civil engineering and construction management courses at the college level.

Through Wyzant, I specialize in one-on-one tutoring for the FE Civil Exam (Fundamentals of Engineering), helping students master every subject area tested on the exam.

I dedicate my tutoring practice exclusively to FE Civil Exam review—because focus is essential. This specialization allows me to deliver the highest quality instruction, stay deeply aligned with the exam content and format, and ensure every lesson is targeted and effective.

Knowledgeable, Student friendly, Professional, A+++++

Karim has been an absolute difference-maker in my preparation for both the Senior Exit and CAC exams. What really sets him apart is that he doesn’t just show you how to solve problems, rather he takes the time to make sure you fully grasp the concepts behind them. He pushes you to truly understand the "why" and "how" so that you're able to approach any problem, even unfamiliar ones, with high confidence. His patience, clear explanations, and genuine investment in my success have made this stressful process so much more manageable. I wouldn’t be where I am without Karim, and I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone preparing for these exams.

Absolutely great!

I'm working on a senior level capstone in my bachelors of science degree for Construction Management. Karim, being a seasoned civil engineer, was capable of walking me through some of the more technical aspects of reading architectural drawings and conducting quantity takeoffs, along with the quantity estimates that follow. He was able to help me troubleshoot how to determine the best estimating practices for some of the sitework, and he did so in a very great amount of detail. He was nice, very patient, and most importantly, taught me a lot in just a two hour session! Totally worth the price, he was awesome! I would recommend him.
