M. El Hayek received his Mechanical Engineering Diploma from Faculté Polytechnique de Mons (Belgium) in 1987. He had been then employed by the Faculté Polytechnique de Mons as research engineer and worked on various research projects supported by the European Union within the JOULE program framework. At the same time he was acting as assistant teaching specific laboratory courses. He pursued in parallel graduate studies and ended up with a “Doctorat en Sciences Appliquées” from the same Faculté Polytechnique de Mons in 1997. He has also been awarded the degree of “Doctorat Européen en Sciences Appliquées” in 1997 by the Faculté Polytechnique de Mons (Belgium), the Technische Universiteit Delft (The Netherlands), and the Universidade Técnica de Lisboa (Portugal).
M. El Hayek joined Notre Dame University as Assistant Professor in Mechanical Engineering in 1998 and has been promoted to the rank of Associate Professor in October 2007. He has been appointed Chairperson of the Mechanical Engineering Department in October 2006. He is regularly teaching courses in the areas of fluid mechanics, heat transfer, thermodynamics, computational methods, fluid power technology, etc. He is conducting research related to his area of expertise and publishing on a regular basis.
