Dr. Yee-Chung Jin earned his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering (water resource engineering) from the University of Alberta, Canada. Dr. Jin received his bachelor degree from National Cheng-Kung University, Taiwan in Hydraulic Engineering and his master's of science degree from Auburn University, USA in Civil Engineering. He was employed by the Atomic Energy of Canada (AECL) for two years as a hydrogeologist before he joined the University of Regina in 1990. He teaches courses in hydraulics, water resources, groundwater modeling, and geotechnical engineering. Dr. Jin published refereed papers in the journals of ASCE, Hydrology, Powder Technology, Computers and Fluids, and other journals. Dr. Jin’s research interests include simulating flow and sediment transport in rivers by depth-averaged models, modeling advective and dispersive mass transport in groundwater systems using the finite element method, developing a MPS meshless model to study fluid flow, and the simulation of granular flow by MPS model.
