Biography

Dr. Rama Ibrahim Al Rabady I am a Professor of Architecture and Dean of the Faculty of Architecture and Design at Al-Ahliyya Amman University, with over two decades of experience spanning architectural heritage, conservation, and digital innovation. My work treats architectural heritage as a living resource—a dynamic intersection of material science, cultural identity, and sociopolitical narrative—rather than a static relic. I hold a Ph.D. in Architecture from Texas A&M University, a Certificate in Historic Preservation, a Master of Science from the University of Jordan, and a Bachelor of Science from Jordan University of Science and Technology. I have held academic and leadership positions at the Hashemite University, Al-Zaytouneh University, Prince Sultan University, and Al-Ahliyya Amman University, including Dean of the Faculty of Architecture and Design and Head of the Department of Architecture. My research rests on three interdependent pillars. First, material science and reverse engineering: decoding ancient stonecraft through modern engineering frameworks. Second, decoloniality and community agency. Third, integrative heritage management and digital innovation. I am committed to establishing regional hubs for digital heritage, ancient engineering reconstruction, and heritage justice that position local stakeholders as active agents in preserving their own history.
