Murad Safadi
M.Sc., Marine Geosciences Department
“During the construction of the Haifa Bay Port, I supervised and managed the sea-based tasks, with an emphasis on constructing breakwaters, carrying out marine excavations, laying and casting underwater geotechnical marine mattresses, carrying out and overseeing seabed mapping surveys using multibeam sonar, and multiple diving surveys. In addition, I’ve participated in numerous marine projects, such as sand nourishment on beaches, cliff preservation, and leading geological, geotechnical, and environmental surveys for future projects in the maritime space.
Today, I see and live the direct correlation between everything I experienced during my studies at the Marine Geosciences Department, and my ability to analyze findings that present themselves during a project. As a student, I felt privileged to meet marine scientists while studying and learning about leading-edge marine science. Not a day goes by when I don’t use the advanced, comprehensive methods and knowledge I acquired during my studies!”
