Prof. Abdullah has taught several undergraduate courses such as Waste Management and Utilization, Environmental Engineering, Waste Management Engineering, Environmental Biotechnology, Solid Waste Engineering and Biotechnology Engineering Lab. He has also prepared several course outlines for the new Civil Engineering Dept. at IIUM. For the postgraduate level, he has taught Advanced Water Treatment Processes, Wastewater Reclamation and Reuse.
As a practising engineer, he worked for 12 years in various engineering companies before joining IIUM. He has had the opportunity to work with international consultants in the water and environment sectors. As such, he is skilled in planning & conducting water & wastewater sampling, in-situ and lab testing of water and wastewater quality parameters, water pollution control (point & non-point or diffuse sources), surface water quality modelling, water & wastewater treatment, urban stormwater management, hydrological analysis & computer simulation, water resources study, flood mitigation, etc. He was involved in developing several stormwater and drainage design guidelines prepared for the Government of Malaysia.
He is also active in research and acquired total funds of RM 1.484 million (16 grants) till 2015. He has presented 66 papers in conferences, published 38 papers in refereed journals, written one book and 15 chapters, and received 19 awards; 1 patent granted and 2 more patents pending.
