Biography

Dr Law is currently a Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at NUS since 2024. He is also the Executive Director of the Coastal Protection and Flood Resilience Institute (CFI) Singapore. He obtained a PhD and MSc degrees in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley with specialisations in hydraulic and coastal hydraulic engineering, and a BEng (Civil) from the University of Hong Kong. He was a senior practicing engineer in the USA for over 7 years before migrating to Singapore to join the academic faculty of the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Nanyang Technological University in 1995.  He chaired the Joint IAHR/IWA Committee in Marine Outfall Systems (2014-16) and ASEAN Hydroinformatics Data Centre as Singapore’s representative (2022-2023) and is the current Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Hydro-environment Research as well as an Editorial Board member in related technical journals.

Dr Law has active interests in hydraulic and coastal engineering, environmental hydraulics, and data-driven process control of water systems. He adopts the Research-Development-Translation-Application (RDTA) philosophy to evolve fundamental understandings validated by laboratory experiments and numerical simulations into state-of-the-art solutions with tangible benefits in field applications. Dr Law is particularly experienced in large-scale water projects and has been an expert consultant for major water infrastructure projects for many local and international companies. His current research focuses on the advancement of close-range remote sensing to monitor the coastal environment under climate change and sea level rise, probabilistic and generative machine learning to optimise process control for water systems and treatment facilities, and innovations in coastal renewable energy systems.
