Shady Attia is an Egyptian-Belgian academic and architectural engineer. He is a professor of Sustainable Architecture and Building Technology at the University of Liège, where he leads the Laboratory of Sustainable Building Design.

Education

Attia completed his undergraduate studies in architectural engineering at the Faculty of Fine Arts at Helwan University in 2002. He then pursued a Master of Science in Landscape Design and Urban Planning at Wageningen University, specializing in urban climate. In 2009, he began a PhD in building physics at Texas A&M University and later completed it at UCLouvain, where his research focused on zero-energy buildings, later worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne.

Career

He began his career in 2014 and joined the University of Liège's School of Engineering as a faculty member, becoming an associate professor in 2016 and a Full Professor in 2020. He has authored more than 120 peer-reviewed journal articles and over 100 conference papers, books, and technical reports. He is actively involved with the International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA) and several International Energy Agency (IEA) committees. He is an active member of different ISO committees representing the Belgian Bureau of Normalization with a focus on Circular Economy in the Construction Sector.

He is also a member of the Society of Building Science Educators and co-founder of the Doctoral Seminar for Sustainability in the Built Environment in Belgium.

Attia is ranked among the top 2% of scientists globally by Stanford University, and his book Regenerative and Positive Impact Architecture has been widely used and recognized for its relevance to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
