Meet the Faculty - Bahram Salehi
Get to know Dr. Bahram Salehi, a remote sensing expert who arrived at the Department of Environmental Resoures Engineering at ESF because we offered exactly what he was looking for: a place where cutting-edge technology, environmental problem-solving, and climate action collide. In this video, he shares how his passion for using satellite data, drones, and AI to tackle major environmental challenges found its perfect home at ESF, a campus known for its leadership in environmental science and forestry. Viewers will see how his research tracks everything from forest change across the Northeast to the movement of icebergs, sea ice, wetlands, and climate-driven environmental shifts.
Get an inside look at Dr. Salehi’s hands-on, tech-powered classes — from drone labs that monitor water quality in real time to surveying projects where students map actual sections of campus. He talks about the multidisciplinary magic of ESF, where engineering, science, and social science blend to help students solve real-world problems alongside expert faculty.
