Dr. Bhuiyan is working as the professor (Grade-1) in the department of civil engineering with specialization in structural and earthquake engineering at Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology (CUET), Bangladesh. He is the Lead Faculty of the Structural Engineering  Lab. In addition, he is currently serving as the Director of Institutional Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC). He served CUET as the Dean of Faculty of Civil Engineering (2017-2019), Director of Institute of Earthquake Engineering Research (IEER) (2014-2019, 2021-2023) and Head of Department of Civil Engineering (2015-2017) and Department of Disaster and Environmental Engineering (2012-2014). He was the Syndicate member of CUET (2016-2019). He was also the Senior Consultant (2019-2021, on lien from the university) at Housing and Building Research Institute (HBRI), Ministry of Housing and Public Works under a JICA-STREPS project entitled “Technical Development to Upgrade Structural Integrity of Buildings in Densely Populated Urban Areas and Its Strategic Implementation towards Resilient Cities (TSUIB)” jointly funded by Japan and Bangladesh.

Dr. Bhuiyan is the Fellow of the Institute of Engineers, Bangladesh (IEB) and maintains his membership with American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), Structural Engineering Institute (ASCE-SEI), Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI), International Association for Structural and Bridge Engineering (IABSE) and Japan Society of Civil Engineers (JSCE).

Dr. Bhuiyan received his B.Sc. in Civil Engineering degree and M. Sc. in Structural Engineering degree from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), Bangladesh. He obtained his Ph.D. degree majoring Structural and Earthquake Engineering from Saitama University, Japan with the Monbukagakhusho (MEXT) scholarship of Japan Government.  In 2011, he worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the school of engineering in University of British Columbia (Okanagan Campus), Canada.

Dr. Bhuiyan started his professional career as research associate in the Department of Civil Engineering, BUET in 2001. He joined CUET in 2002 as lecturer, got promoted to assistant professor in 2005, associate professor in 2012, professor (Grade 3) in 2013, professor (Grade 2) in 2017 and finally he got promoted to professor (Grade-1) in July 2022.  In 2010, he worked as a short-term visiting scholar at University of Kassel and University of Ruhr in Germany.

From 2006 to 2009, Dr. Bhuiyan carried out research works in Japan on laminated rubber bearings and developed rheology models for seismic analysis of laminated rubber bearings to be used in protecting bridge structures from earthquakes. This widely accepted technology has been directly applied, for the first time in Bangladesh, in the construction of the second Kanchpur-Meghna-Gomti bridges recently constructed on the Dhaka-Chittagong highway. In 2011-2013, he conducted research works in Canada and Bangladesh on fragility assessment of SMA installed highway bridges due to earthquakes, and developed a simplified rheology model for SMA based rubber bearings to be used in protecting bridge structures from earthquakes. In 2010-2016, he took part in a project contributing towards development and formulation of course curriculum on disaster engineering education in postgraduate level in the South East Asian countries. The project was headed by University of Kassel, Germany and the other partner universities/ institutes of the project were from Bangladesh, India and Nepal. He was also involved in a mega research project of seismic evaluation and retrofitting of existing RC and URM buildings under a joint initiative of GoB-JICA. Apart from his academic and administrative responsibilities at the university, he serves, on behalf of CUET, as consultant in various projects of different government and non-government organizations of the country.

Dr. Bhuiyan has supervised more than ten postgraduate students. He has completed a number of national and international research projects and published more than 75 technical papers in peer reviewed journals and proceedings. He served BAETE, IEB as the member secretary of the Coordination Committee in 2020 and 2021.He is also working in a team contributing to the improvement of quality of engineering education in Bangladesh. In addition to academic responsibilities, he is also working as the general secretary of Bangladesh Group of IABSE.
