Majid received his Ph.D. in polymer engineering (2018) from the Institute for Color Science and Technology in collaboration with Laboratory of Photochemistry and Macromolecular Engineering at the University of Haute-Alsace, where he studied curing kinetics of UV-curable systems containing scattering nanoparticles. In 2019, he joined Okanagan Polymer Engineering Research & Applications at the University of British Columbia as a postdoctoral scholar investigating a sort of surface engineering and interfacial topics including anti-fouling coatings, interfacial cavitation of elastomers, photo-elasticity, quasicrystalline coatings, fracture mechanics of hard solids from soft and hard surfaces, elastomer-like metallic surfaces, large-scale de-icing, wearable electronics, robust omniphobic coatings, sprayable and colloidally stable superhydrophobic textile finishes, and anti-microbial coatings. He also served as a material scientist at PRE Labs Inc. to commercialize some promising technologies such as non-toxic and durable omniphobic coatings, antimicrobial coatings, ballistic hard and soft body armours, and smart jackets. Majid joined Centre for Advanced Polymers and Nanotechnology at the University of Calgary to help planet sustainability by working on electronic waste recycling.
