Chantal SAAD HAJJAR

Enseignant Cadré - Professeur associé - PhD degree in Computer Engineering

School of Engineering of Beirut (ESIB)
Center for Computer Science, Modeling, and Information Technology (CIMTI)

(+961) 1 421 000 ext 3339 chantal.hajjar@usj.edu.lb

Graduating as an electrical engineer with a specialization in computer science from ESIB in 1993, I began my career as a system engineer at Integro, a French company specializing in software production, where I worked from 1993 to 1996. In 1997, I joined the Zahlé and Bekaa Campus (CZB) of USJ as a teaching assistant.

In 2008, I obtained a Master's degree in modeling and computer simulation. From 2011 to 2014, I conducted doctoral research in computer engineering at Supélec, resulting in my doctoral thesis and my promotion to assistant professor. In 2016, I contributed to the creation of the ESIB branch at CZB and served as its coordinator until July 2022. From April 2021 to April 2022, I held the position of interim director of CZB.

Since September 2022, I have been part of ESIB, where I have been appointed coordinator of the computer engineering and communications program. Additionally, since January 2023, I have held the position of deputy director of the ESIB preparatory classes.
