Computer Science Professor at École Marocaine des Sciences de l'Ingénieur (EMSI)

Dr. Hamza Abouabid

High Energy Physicist | CS Professor | Researcher

As a High Energy Physicist with extensive expertise in both theoretical physics and computer science, I currently teach specialized computer science courses at EMSI Casablanca while maintaining my physics research. My interdisciplinary background includes contributing to various research projects in particle physics alongside developing technical skills in programming and computational analysis. I'm passionate about mentoring students and sharing knowledge across both fields.
