Dounia Boushab is a Ph.D. candidate in Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University. She received her engineering diploma in Aerospace Engineering at Université Internationale de Rabat (UIR) in 2015, and her master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering at Mississippi State University in 2017. Dounia was awarded two academic achievement scholarships 2012-2015 and 2015-2017. Dounia’s research focuses on assessing the lightning damage resistance and tolerance of Pultruded Rod Stitched Efficient Unitized Structure (PRSEUS) panel. Fun fact about Dounia is that she has conducted over 100 full-scale lightning strike tests (currents ranging 50-200 kA) on PRSEUS and coupon scale carbon/epoxy composites, under a variety of test conditions for damage characterization. Besides research, Dounia likes to draw and read.
